Art Exhibit: Beyond the Garden: Selected Works by Bruce Porter

Bruce Porter (1865 – 1953) is most well-known, at Filoli, for his work designing Filoli’s formal garden. What is perhaps not as well-known is he was also an accomplished artist, painter, sculptor, stained glass designer, writer, muralist, and art critic. Filoli’s permanent collection includes many of his original artistic works in a range of mediums. In addition, the collection holds scaled photographs of dozens of his sketches and studies. An exhibit of a selection of his works will be on display in the Visitor and Education Center.
