A part of Emily Brock’s Books series, Field Trip conjures images of childhood school visits to the local art museum. “Of all the inanimate objects, of all men’s creations, books are the nearest to us, for they contain our very thought, our ambitions, our indignations, our illusions, our fidelity to truth and our persistent leaning toward error.”- Joseph Conrad, (1857-1924) Notes on Life and Letters
Museum Purchase with contributions from the Leslie Hamilton Memorial Fund and partial gift of Emily Brock
