Hear the story of how the Longue Vue House & Gardens in New Orleans came to be from curator and historian, Lenora Costa. Considered one of America’s great estates, Longue Vue’s eight acres of gardens - and matching residential interiors - were the late 1930’s masterwork of Ellen Biddle Shipman, one of the first female landscape designers of note. Home to civic and philanthropic visionaries Edith and Edgar Stern, this breathtaking estate is a remarkable document of 20th-century American society, politics, and art. Plus: Detroit, Michigan painter and muralist Sabrina Nelson, and the nautical creations of Florida Keys artists Glenn and Nadine Lahti.
