Brandywine Museum of Art: Second Floor, Linda L. Bean Gallery

 So much like its first floor counterpart, the Linda L. Bean gallery is likewise low-ceiling-ed and cozy.  Here are the works at the heart of the Museum's "raison d'etre".  Here a Wyeth, There a Wyeth, EVERYWHERE a Wyeth!  Here are some of the paintings that stood out to me.  Enjoy!
