dc.description.abstractThe issue's feature article, "Heart of the Nation Moves to the Museum," focuses on The Missouri: Heart of the Nation collection of ninety-eight paintings that has moved from the walls of Jesse Hall to its new home at the Museum of Art and Archaeology. The collection was commissioned by the Scruggs-Vandervoort-Barney, Inc. department store of St. Louis, Missouri, in 1946 and donated to the University of Missouri in 1950. When the collection was housed in Jesse Hall, few viewers were aware that each painting was part of a collection. Why was the collection commissioned by a department store? Who were the artists? How did the collection end up at the University? And most importantly, what overall picture of Missouri did the collection paint?eng
