NOVEMBER
November 15 – January 12
The First City through the Eyes of the Masters
St. Augustine-themed works from perhaps the best collection of
Florida painters in the 19th and early 20th centuries. This includes
the work of Frank Henry Shapleigh, who wintered at Henry Flagler’s
Ponce de Leon Hotel from 1886 to 1887 and was the hotel’s resident
artist from 1889 to 1892. The exhibition is uniquely displayed
in a then and now format. Each early St. Augustine painting is
accompanied by a current photograph of the exact same location
and perspective for visitors to explore how America’s first city has
changed throughout history. The exhibition also features a walking
tour brochure that provides locations, descriptions and distances
to all of the St. Augustine historical sites depicted in the exhibition’s
artwork. Free admission. Open daily 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. Located at the
St. Augustine Visitors Information Center, 10 West Castillo Dr.
