After The Fabulous Baker Boys, Pfeiffer would do a lot of great work but she would never get to another tempest in a teapot moment like she did in 1988 - 1989.
Among the major works in the exhibition are John F. Peto's vibrant and haunting trompe l'oeil painting, The Writer's Table: A Precarious Moment (1892) and Andrew Wyeth's strikingly somber Christina's Teapot (1968).
