Dear Friends, Our organization is driven by this critical mission Each year, I believe that it is important that we take time to evaluate our successes, via our mission

By all accounts, 2016 was the best year yet for the Biggs Museum

In the last year, the Biggs has proudly provided excellent, transformative programming to thousands of disadvantaged school children, hundreds of community groups and nearly 25,000

visitors We hosted record crowds for exhibitions such as The Saint John’s Bible, and programs,

such as the 1st Annual Happy Holidays Dover and the Collection Connection: Members Brunch and Lecture (about our newly acquiredSRUWDLWV by 5REHUWFeke) In addition, the Biggs Museum was honored to have been November’s selected Charity for Gals That Give, an organization of women who host HYHQWVWRUDLVHIXQGVDQGVSUHDGWKHZRUGDERXWDGLIIHUHQWFKDULW\HDFKPRQWK /DVWO\WKH*DODUDLVHGDUHFRUGDPRXQWDQGZHKDYHDOVRVHHQDVLJQL¿FDQWLQFUHDVHLQ PHPEHUVKLSVDQGJUDQWIXQGLQJ±DOOEHQH¿WLQJWKHPXVHXP¶VDELOLW\WRVHUYHWKHFRPPXQLW\ZLWK quality exhibitions and educational programming

As we look forward, the Biggs Museum has a major milestone ahead From May 2017-September

2018 we will celebrate our 25th Anniversary with a variety of special events and exhibitions

including an exhibition of Ansel Adams: Early Works and Christo & Jeanne-Claude: The Tom Golden Collection – to mention only two.

None of this would have been possible without the support of friends like you On behalf of the HQWLUHERDUGRIWUXVWHHVDQGVWDIIZHWKDQN\RX:HWKDQN\RXIRUPDNLQJLWWKDWPXFKHDVLHUWR serve the community through our mission, and positioning us to have yet another fantastic year! Sincerely,

Many know the artist Frank E Schoonover (1877-1972) for his

narrative paintings and illustrations, but it is little known that between 1920 and 1960, the artist designed a series of stained glass windows for the

Immanuel Church Highlands in Wilmington,

Delaware This fall the Biggs was thrilled to

broaden its representation of Schoonover’s

work through the acquisition of two

preparatory sketches for these windows The

sketches eloquently depict the Annunciation

and the road the wise men travelled to visit

the Christ Child

Each window Schoonover designed passed

through a four stage production process

beginning with sketches, like the ones now in

the Biggs’ collection, followed by a watercolor

cartoon, a full-scale charcoal on paper, and,

XOWLPDWHO\WKH¿QDOZLQGRZ6FKRRQRYHU

worked closely with D’Ascenzo Studios and

The Willet Stained Glass Company, both in

Philadelphia, to carefully plan each detail of

WKH¿QDOZLQGRZ$GGLWLRQDOFRPPHQWDU\

ZDVR̆HUHGE\WKHVSRQVRUVRIHDFKZLQGRZ

who were all members of the Immanuel

congregation The two sketches in the

Biggs’ collection were created for windows

sponsored by the Law family, in memory

of Margaret Callan Law, and J Thompson

Brown

Due to the inherently geometric nature of the medium, Schoonover’s window designs prove a stylistic break from the loose brushwork for which he is most known In the sketch for the landscape scene, Schoonover embraced the

linearity of stained-glass by contrasting curves and jutting angles in a tumult of sky This artful juxtaposition is evocative of the vaporous clouds and fog that permeate his most expressive paintings In his Annunciation sceneOHIW, Schoonover, in typical fashion, opted to represent the scene not as a booming drama, but as a quiet moment of realization In lieu of a theatrical display of surprise, Schoonover’s Mary demonstrates her monumental emotional and physical shift with a gentle gesture towards her heart

As the primary and largest representative of Schoonover’s work in the country, acquisitions like these sketches are crucial additions to the Biggs’ collection Given the story of their production and uniqueness within Schoonover’s work, their presence in the collection allows the Biggs to tell the full story of the artist’s life through the examination and exhibition of his own work
