Master Drawings (1800-1914) from the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford
April 16, 2004-June 27, 2004
Arthur Ross Gallery, University of Pennslvania


Master Drawings (1800-1914) from the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, is an exhibition of works loaned by the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, curated by Jon Whiteley of the Department of Western Art. Students enrolled in a seminar offered by the Department of the History of Art at the University of Pennsylvania entitled, "Drawings from the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford," were charged with the daunting task of researching the various drawings, for which there were varying degrees of available resources. The resulting catalogue entries reflect both an acute awareness of the issues surrounding the nineteenth century as well as a nuanced, in-depth study of the drawings themselves.

This exhibition was organized by the Arthur Ross Gallery, University of Pennsylvania, in collaboration with the Department of the History of Art, University of Pennsylvania, and the Arthur Ross Foundation, New York City.
