The New Common School Foundation, Detroit. Of the Friends of America’s National Churchill Museum. Of our founding donor, Paul Hilliard, with support from the UL Lafayette Foundation, Badger Oil, and media sponsorship from The Advocate. The exhibition is organized by America’s National Churchill Museum at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri, and is presented at the museum in honor National Churchill Museum and private collections in the United States, this exhibition surveys the range of Churchill’s art, which for him was the (1874–1965), one of the most renowned-and many say greatest-wartime leaders of the twentieth century. The Art of Sir Winston Churchilloffers a unique opportunity to view paintings rarely seen in North America by the British statesman Winston Churchill There remains, however, another picture to be painted of Sir Winston Churchill: the portrait of Churchill as an artist. He wrote over 5,000 speeches, 42 books, and countless articles ranging from African travel journals to essays about oil painting, and in 1953 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature for “his mastery of historical and biographical description as well as for brilliant oratory in defending exalted human values." He was also a passionate writer and orator.
Volumes have been written about Churchill, the confident statesman who led the British during World War II and inspired a nation during its “finest hour.” Churchill is remembered today-over five decades after his death-as a leader whose eccentricities and audacity contributed to his stubborn defiance in the face of adversity. History has painted a portrait of Winston Churchill as an ambitious, confident, bold, brash, and sometimes flawed man. The Hilliard University Art Museum is pleased to be the exclusive venue for the exhibition The Art of Sir Winston Churchill.
