Flora Dyer's brushwork captures two majestic cabbage palms, the native trees that have anchored Florida's landscape since long before Stuart took root. Through her eyes, we see the same palms that would have greeted the earliest settlers and railway workers arriving in the 1890s, trees that remained silent witnesses to Stuart's transformation from wilderness to thriving town.
