An art exhibit that pays homage to a Central Virginia landmark and a 19th-century Japanese artist is on display through Sept. 14 in the Babcock Fine Arts Center at Sweet Briar College.

The exhibit, “100 Views of High Peak, Part 1,” includes paintings of the High Peak of Tobacco Row Mountain by Amherst residents Nancy McDearmon, Marion Freerks and Rosalie Day White.

Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday through Aug. 28, when classes begin for the fall semester. From Aug. 29 through Sept. 14, hours are 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday, Monday and Friday and 1 to 9:30 p.m. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

“Hayrack,” by Nancy McDearmon, is part of the exhibit.The oil, watercolor and pastel paintings were inspired by the works of Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849), a Japanese woodblock printer from the Edo Period who is famous for his series “36 Views of Mt. Fuji.”

“Hayrack,” by McDearmon, is one of the paintings on display. McDearmon says it was influenced by Hokusai’s image of a barrel maker, “Mt. Fuji View Field in Owari Province,” which is part of the Sweet Briar Gallery’s permanent collection.

Admission is free. For more information, contact Rebecca Massie Lane at 381-6248 or rmlane@sbc.edu.
