The painting is Reading the Story of Oenone, 1883, oil on canvas by Francis David Millet. It is installed on the Lake St. side of the South Lyon Herald/Milford Times building. The plaque reads, in celebration of the 125th anniversary of the Detroit Institute of Arts, the DIA, in partnership with SM/Art Editions, will feature 40 of its most famous works on buildings in Wayne, Macomb, Oakland and Washtenaw Counties. You can click on the interactive map on the DIA site to see where you can see the art. Named DIA: Inside/Out, the exhibit runs from Sept. 10 to November 30, 2010. An incredible idea! The plaque continues that the project "aims to connect with audiences outside of museum walls." I'm going to find some partners to see all the art by bicycle.
