Get Out! Hirshorn Sculpture Garden

Our recommendation for today is a day late, which is pretty on-brand for the last Saturday of February – a doleful month if there ever was one. By the way, the name February comes from the Italian word for fever: apparently, February was the month when disease would creep out of the Tiber River and ravage Rome in the past. We can take joy in the fact, though, that our numbers are going down, and in the fact that it is going to be a rainy weekend – a perfect time for this weekend’s expedition to the Hirshhorn Sculpture Garden.

The Sculpture Garden has a wide array of sculptures, something for everyone. There’s Henry Moore’s “Seated Woman,” a curiously equine female, and his “King and Queen,” which is also curious, but I think very cool. Rodin’s “Walking Man” and his “Crouching Woman” are powerful studies of motion and muscle – quiet rebukes to those of us who have done too little of the former and lost to much of the latter during the Pandemic. Jean Arp’s “Evocation of a Form: Human, Lunar, Spectral” is fittingly meditative and “Are Years What? (For Marianne Moore)” by Mark di Suvero remind me that my understanding of modern art is super limited, because I simply don’t get it!

There’s a bunch more and all worth seeing!! And today and tomorrow are optimal times! The rain will keep the crowds away (yay!). Also, it will make the metal glisten and lend a sense of texture that the sculptures lack in the sun. So celebrate February’s last weekend by heading on down to the Mall and getting a bit of culture!

Get Out! Lincoln’s Cottage

Here’s Garrett’s pick for this week–Lincoln’s Cottage.

Our recommended expedition this weekend is to President Lincoln’s cottage on the grounds of the Soldiers’ Home. This chunk of land was purchased in 1851 from the Riggs family to house aging soldiers, using money that the US during the Mexican War and the cottage itself was lived by George Washington Riggs, who put up the property for sale after the death of his two-year-old daughter made living there to painful for him. Not a very cheerful sales pitch so far, I know! But wait. The Lincoln’s were invited to summer at the cottage, and they did so, living in the house for nearly a quarter of Lincoln’s presidency. This was a real refuge since Willie Lincoln died of typhoid just four months prior to the family’s first stay at the cottage.

Ok, selling points. The cottage is pretty, but not amazing to look at. What is amazing is that the little stairs that lead to the upstairs bedrooms are the same stairs Lincoln went up and down every day. The bedroom upstairs is the room where the Emancipation Proclamation was written. For those with a good imagination, Lincoln’s Cottage is a powerful time machine. The guides are very knowledgeable. There’s a good exhibit inside the visitor’s center, and there you will find a pair of Lincoln’s old slippers. They are boat-like, and embroidered with cute little dogs – the slippers made the whole trip worthwhile!
