  1. Caton connection delivers at Walters

    A neglected 19th-century Baltimore artist gets some 21st-century recognition in an exhibit at the Walters Art Museum. "New Eyes on America: The Genius of Richard Caton Woodville" includes all 16 of his surviving paintings, some of his drawings and watercolors, and enough artwork by contemporaries to illuminate the career of an artist who did not leave any diaries or letters behind.

  4. Jefferson Davis' 'presidential' library

    This spring will be remembered, by history junkies at least, for the opening of a major new institution, one named after a polarizing leader, devoted to a divisive period, subsidized by taxpayers and stationed in the South. I'm not talking about the presidential library of George W. Bush but the "presidential library" of Jefferson Davis, the one and only chief executive of the Confederate States of America, which will be dedicated Monday in Biloxi, Miss.

  5. Letters from a son: What Allentown's William Reichard saw at Antietam

  6. Review: On the front lines with 'War/Photography' at the Annenberg

    Including the American Revolution, the United States has participated in 12 major wars since the republic was founded. All but two were photographed. (The Mexican-American War of 1846-48 was the first to be documented with cameras, but just a few pictures survive.) The industrialization of war has logically coincided with the rise of machines that produce images.

  8. Ollin links arms with Pogues in act of St. Patrick's Day solidarity

    It's a Catholic thing. It's an immigrant-underdog thing. It's an acoustic-punk thing.
    It's a Catholic thing. It's an immigrant-underdog thing. It's an acoustic-punk thing. There are many reasons why, for the last 10 or 11 years — the precise number is lost in the fog of memory — the L.A. Chicano band Ollin has celebrated St....
