ART AND ARTIFACTS, 1939-1984

Primarily art and artifacts acquired by Frances Grant during her Latin American trips. Includes paintings, figurines, wooden and metal objects, jewelry, textiles, ceramics, political memorabilia, plaques, and miscellaneous objects.

Of particular importance are signed paintings by Peruvian artists Julia Codesido, who was a friend of Grant's, and José Sabogal. Also of interest is a Peruvian retablo, a wooden box, which opens to show an intricately carved Easter scene. The paintings, which are oversize, are stored separately.

Several items are inscribed to Frances Grant. Also includes wooden plaque citations received by her.
