In her 1967 painting, Rainy Night, Downtown, part of the NMWA collection and on view on the third floor, Jessup celebrates the urban landscape on a rainy evening.

Two shadowy figures occupy the lower right, and legible signs include “Translux,” “St. H NW,” and “Casino.”](https://nmwa.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/1986.160-aspect-ratio-2.25-1-700x330.jpg)
