The World Through Their Eyes: The Art of William Brenton Boggs and Truman Seymour
Sullivan Museum and History Center, Norwich University Press, 2022
$30 (includes shipping | any sales tax applied at checkout)
The World Through Their Eyes: The Art of William Brenton Boggs and Truman Seymour presents the art of two Norwich-trained citizens and soldiers who appreciated art, made it a part of their lives, and, when the time was right, pursued it in earnest. This catalog is the compendium to the 2022 exhibit of the same title and features works by Boggs, class of 1828, and Seymour, class of 1844.
The World Through Their Eyes is an exhibit unlike any other the Sullivan Museum and History Center has previously presented. For the first time since its opening in 2007, we are placing you, the visitor, in the artist’s perspective. You are seeing what the artists saw with an emphasis on the minute details they found both beautiful and interesting in the world. Both artists are featured in this one book, in keeping with the gallery exhibit design. Simply turn the book over to experience the art of the other artist.
This catalog is dedicated to Robert V. Guptill ’68, a tireless supporter of the museum, donor, and friend. Bob worked for nearly 40 years to collect the Boggs and Seymour collections and, sadly, never saw this exhibit or the catalog come to life, which he pushed for over the years.

“Evening on the U.P.”
18” x 24” print
This oil on canvas painting, completed in 2018, presents Jackman Hall from the Upper Parade Ground, roughly at the half-way mark of the parade field. In front of the building is the Armstrong signal cannon under its cover and near the main flagpole of the university, which has had its flag removed for the day. Above the building is a blue, white, and pink sunset cloudscape. The painting is highly detailed and true-to what the Parade Ground looked like prior to its renovations during the Bicentennial Celebration.
“Forever”
18” x 24” print
This oil on canvas painting, competed in 2014, shows the Centennial Stairs at the Jackman Hall end of campus. The trees show some slight color change suggesting a very early fall day on campus. In the background of the painting, at roughly the center of the stairs, the United States' flag is flying, further suggesting this scene was captured prior to the Corps of Cadets removing the flag and playing Taps at the end of the duty day.
“Ascend”
18” x 24” print
This oil on canvas painting was completed in 2019 following a direct commission by the Sullivan Museum and History Center. The painting depicts the stairs constructed during the Bicentennial Celebration to commemorate and acknowledge those who have provided significant support to the university over the years. These stairs are roughly similar in design and scope to the Centennial Stairs located on the opposite end of campus. The perspective of the painting places the viewer directly outside of the Sullivan Museum and History Center with Goodyear Hall in the background.
“White Chapel”
18” x 24” print
This oil on canvas painting, completed in 2014, shows the chapel during winter with barren trees and snow surrounding the building. In the background, several floors of the Kreitzberg Library are visible.
