‘The Garden of Eden’: Thomas Cole’s “The Garden of Eden,” a masterpiece of American painting thought lost for almost 160 years, has been acquired by the Amon Carter Museum in Ft. Worth, Tex. Museum officials said that under terms of the acquisition, the names of the previous owners or terms of the transaction would not be revealed. The painting is scheduled to be seen by the public for the first time since 1831 when the museum places it on display today.
