The Walters Art Museum hopes to alter our understanding of Europe during the 15th, 16th, and 17th centuries. On display are works by great artists like Rubens and Bronzino that portray Africans, and illustrate European conceptions of the continent at the time. Tom Hall takes a tour of the Walters exhibition, "Revealing the African Presence in Renaissance Europe."

The exhibition runs through January 21.
