California, The Golden Years: Selections from the Bowers Permanent Collection, a 2002 exhibit at the Bowers Museum of Cultural Art featuring landscapes and figure paintings. Visitors will find familiar scenes of Laguna Beach and Orange County, as well as views of southern and northern California, painted by such noted artists as William Wendt and Joseph Kleitsch. Figure paintings in the Impressionist style include Guy Rose's beautiful portrait of Marguerite (c. 1900-1910) and Fannie Duvall's Confirmation Class, San Juan Capistrano (1897), one of the earliest works included in the exhibition.
