  1. Walters explores African presence in Renaissance Europe

    One of the ways in which Renaissance artists explored their world was by painting increasingly realistic portraits. Even when they depicted historical, religious and mythic subjects, they often relied upon the people around them to serve as models.

  3. In Little Italy, fresh eyes on American democracy

    So intent was Riccardo Migliori on his mission — observing the U.S. election and asking questions about the voting process in Baltimore — that he missed the statues of saints and the oil painting of Pope Leo XIII. So foreign was the idea that voting might take place in a house of worship that he apparently didn't notice the brass crucifix on the wall above him, either.

  7. U.S. stronger, safer under Obama

    Four years ago, Osama bin Laden was at large, the U.S. and world economies were in free-fall, America was bogged down in two wars, and the Bush Administration had lost friends — governments as well as ordinary people — for America around the...

  9. Will America go the way of Europe?

    As the presidential election counts down to (despite recent tightening in the polls) a likely Obama victory, even moderate Republicans despair that America is going the way of "social democratic" Western Europe, with a smaller private sector, more power in the hands of political and technocratic elites, and unlimited government. For their part, liberals cheer that America will finally catch up with the more "advanced" lands across the Atlantic.

  11. Walters art exhibit focuses on Africans living in Renaissance Europe

    The view of a 16th-century Lisbon street is such a teeming hodgepodge of races, social classes and religions and has so much life on display — much of it mischievous — that's it hard not to smile.

  13. Revelation at the Walters

    People passing through the intersection at Charles and Centre streets recently may have noticed an intriguing banner hanging from the wall above the entrance to the <a href="http://findlocal.baltimoresun.com/mount-vernon/art/art/the-walters-art-museum-baltimore-museum">Walters Art Museum</a>. The oversize image depicts a black woman dressed in the manner of a 16<sup>t</sup><sup>h</sup>century Italian lady-in-waiting, who returns our gaze with an expression of ironic, amused self-awareness.

  15. Close encounters with socialized medicine

    In the mid-1980s when I was a graduate student in England, my parents came to visit and my mother ended up getting a first-hand look at socialized medicine.

  17. Rachel Marsden: Is Putin the Russian Reagan?

    It would seem that we're now at the stage of global economic lunacy where the worldwide socialist slide is so far gone that the president of Russia is lecturing the world, and particularly Europe, about the risks of socialism.

    I know some of my more parochial colleagues can't get past the troubles CNN continues to have in its prime-time American operation. And I am right up there in being dismayed by some of the moves management has made with Eliot Spitzer, Kathleen Parker,...
