The Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens presents A Genius for Place: American Landscapes of the Country Place Era on January 25, 2011.  The exhibition, on view through April 24, 2011, features 52 large-scale photographs of many well-known historic American estates by Carol Betsch, managing editor of the University of Massachusetts Press and written commentary by Robin Karson, founding director of The Library of American Landscape History.  From Stockbridge, Massachusetts to Santa Barbara, California, A Genius for Place exhibits seven landscape designs that were originally created as private estates, but have retained significant portions of the original layout and most are currently open to visitors.
