More exhibitions around the world featuring Brontë-related work:

1. In Princeton, New Jersey:
D&R Greenway Art Gallery
Artists have always been drawn to depict the environs they come across in their lives. Their paintings are beautiful, and we love to get lost in the fields and forests they offer.
The current exhibit at D&R Greenway, however, approaches our love of landscape in innovative ways and various media that open our eyes to not only the majesty of nature, but also to the subtle nuances we may otherwise overlook. (...)
Also on display are the many pieces taken from Diane Wilkin’s monoprint series of trees. These explore the variations of tree trunks and lower branches. Mostly presented in black and white, there is “Tree Jane Eyre” in which the monoprint is presented in color on a page from Charlotte Brontë’s novel “Jane Eyre.” (Janet Purcell in The Times of Trenton)
2. In the Cliffe Castle Museum:
The exhibition Inspired by Landscape II is described as a low-cost fun day out at Cliffe Castle Museum.
The exhibition, open until January 15, showcases the work of writer Char March and visual artist Angie Rogers.
They both spent a year creating work inspired by the open moorland of the South Pennines including the Brontë landscape.
They are said to have a healthy respect for the open moorland, which they recognise as beautiful, austere, challenging and dangerous.  (David Knights in Keighley News)
