YORUBA KING

I assume that our art museum assigns specific works to the floral arrangers so that the displays are well-distributed throughout the galleries. It has a growing collection of contemporary African and African American art. The portrait on the wall is the Yoruba/Nigerian king, Irawo II, by Wole Lagunju. You can learn more about the painting at https://www.slam.org/collection/objects/71750/ . I think the flowers reflect it well.
