| Abstract | Photographs of a tour of the Mead Art Museum taken during Parents' Weekend. In photographs, a tour guide holds a booklet titled Representing Revolution: French & British Images, 1789-1804 and can be seen speaking to visitors in the Rotherwas Room and in the Bassett Gallery. Works of art including paintings such as Robert Henri's Salome and George Bellows' Anne in Black Velvet, sculpture such as Paul Manship's Pronghorn Antelope, and English paneling can be seen in the images.
