    In a review of the <a href="http://findlocal.baltimoresun.com/mount-vernon/art/art/the-walters-art-museum-baltimore-museum">Walters Art Museum</a> show of paintings by 19<sup>t</sup><sup>h</sup>-century American artist Richard Caton Woodville, reporter Mary McCauley writes that "the real mystery ... is why so little about the painter is known today &mdash; even in his hometown" ("Walters explores work of Caton heir who lived fast, died young," March 9).
