Perhaps you've heard that "Stars Fell on Alabama."
Well, here is artist Barbara Simpson's depiction of the Leonid Meteor Shower of November 1833 "when the stars fell." The phrase is also the title of a book by Carl Carmer and the title of a 1934 jazz song that has been performed by numerous singers including Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. The phrase was used on Alabama vehicle license plates in the early 2000s.
This mixed media art was on display at the recent ArtsRevive show that was held during Pilgrimage Weekend.
