The Bronx and Staten Island

After a very lengthy meeting with my Board, it was decided that I will list the rest of the photos by area visited - The Bronx, Staten Island, Manhattan, Queens, followed by other cities/states. The photos may not be in date order. (Keep in mind that ALL this is subject to change!!!)

If I refer to pages in the old site, New York A to ZZ will be indicated as such. From AAA to EEEEE, they will be shown as A3, A4, A5, A6, etc. I hope you understand.

For example, the photos posted on this page will be from X4 (XXXX), A5 (AAAAA), C5 (CCCCC) and E5 (EEEEE) for The Bronx and K5 and O5 for Staten Island.

Forgive me if photos posted on other pages are posted again on this and the upcoming pages.

Frida Kahlo: Art, Garden, Life Exhibition

A portion of the Haupt Conservatory exhibited plants and flowers used by Ms. Kahlo (July 6, 1907 to July 13, 1954) to decorate her Blue House in Mexico. She used plants native to Mexico.

In the Ross Gallery and Hall there were 10 of her artworks and replicas of the two dresses worn in her painting of the Two Fridas.

No photos were allowed in the Ross Hall.
