After lunch we headed back to the
Asheville Art Museum, taking advantage of our Tyler Arboretum membership for free admission.

Reflections on Unity (2019, by
Henry Richardson) |
 |
Thomas Wolfe Memorial Angel (1983, by
Dan Millspaugh) is a copy of the grave
marker angel carved by Thomas Wolfe's
father and referenced in the novel,
Look Homeward, Angel |
Apparently the novel by Thomas Wolfe,
Look Homeward, Angel, is autobiographical, although the name of the town in the book was Altamont. At the time, the book was banned in Asheville because many people felt it portrayed Asheville and its people negatively.
