Two paintings in Historic New England's exhibition "Artful Stories" reflect important aspects of the African American experience in New England. The New Hampshire⁠–⁠based artist Richard Haynes describes why he created his imaginary portrait of Cyrus Bruce, while scholar Rosalyn Delores Elder explores how Edward Mitchell Bannister transcended nineteenth-century attitudes about race to become a successful artist in Providence, Rhode Island. "Artful Stories" co-curators Nancy Carlisle and Peter Trippi welcome these guests and connect their insights to other aspects of the exhibition.
