Burnet Art Gallery in Chambers Hotel

The Minneapolis Chambers Hotel’s, Burnet Art Gallery is showing Strassheims self portrait, which has never been shown in a gallery with exception to this gallery! It was great to have a tour by the director herself and learn all about the hotel and its collection! I have always admired this piece and it was great to see it in person! <3
