What do each of Thomas J. Scott’s paintings and their histories tell us about the nature of art, specifically its collection and conservation? What do the ways they were transferred to future generations communicate about the historical realities of their time?
What does Brooks communicate through the reunion scene between Jarret and the painting of himself and Lexington? How does taking possession of the painting relate to Jarret and Lexington’s relationship overall?
