SUMMARY:ON DRAWINGS 2025 - Study Room Visit at the Brooklyn Museum
DESCRIPTION:Study Center visit focused on highlights of the Brooklyn Museum’s collection of European drawings\nLed by Lisa Small\, Senior Curator\, European Art\, Brooklyn Museum \nThis event is open to members of The Drawing Foundation. Log in to your membership account to register or sign up to become a member today. \n___ \nMore about the history of the European art collection at the Brooklyn Museum: \n\n\n\nThe Brooklyn Institute\, a precursor of the Brooklyn Museum\, began collecting work by European artists when the building on Eastern Parkway opened in 1897. These European artworks were the first objects created outside of the United States to enter the collection. Some of the earliest acquisitions\, such as Giovanni della Robbia’s The Resurrection of Christ and James Tissot’s Life of Christ\, offer a preview of what would become two of the collection’s strengths: art made in the Renaissance era and in late 19th-century France. \nIn 1900\, after a blockbuster international tour\, the institute had the opportunity to acquire Tissot’s series of 350 watercolors depicting the life of Christ and related works. Funds were raised by the Board of Trustees and a public subscription advertised in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. Today\, works by Tissot make up nearly a tenth of the European Art collection. \nOver the first half of the 20th century\, the Brooklyn Museum built an important collection of early Renaissance gold-ground paintings. In 1995\, the institution acquired Nardo di Cione’s Madonna and Child Enthroned with Saints\, considered one of the most significant 14th-century altarpieces in the United States. In 2000\, the altarpiece’s long-lost pinnacle\, Christ Blessing\, was found and added to the collection. \nAt the same time\, the institute focused on Impressionism and other early modern art movements\, adding significant works by Berthe Morisot and Claude Monet to the collection before its peer institutions in New York did. Today\, the collection includes important works by well-known artists such as Edgar Degas\, Paul Cézanne\, and Camille Pissarro. Other notable holdings include a comprehensive group of German Expressionist prints\, an excellent impression of Pablo Picasso’s Minotauromachia\, a rare and complete trial proof set of Francisco de Goya y Lucientes’s Caprichos\, and more than 60 bronze sculptures by Auguste Rodin. \nThe Museum is currently working toward a refreshed and reimagined installation of the collection that will continue to explore European art in new contexts. In the meantime\, many of our stars are touring the world in the traveling exhibition French Moderns: Monet to Matisse\, 1850–1950. \n___ \n\n\n\nThis event is organized by The Drawing Foundation in partnership with the Brooklyn Museum as part of On Drawings 2025. \n           \nImage: Vincent van Gogh (Dutch\, 1853–1890).
