Enriching Collections: Recent acquisitions of prints and drawings 2009-2019
Tue 22 January 2019 - Sun 5 May 2019
Fitzwilliam Museum
This exhibition is the first of two successive selections of works on paper to celebrate the outstanding generosity of benefactors and donors who have helped to enrich the collections. It will also highlight a number of exceptional works bought with funds raised or donated by individuals, charities, and other supporters.
Each tells a story of disinterested commitment to giving for the benefit of others. Preserved, researched and displayed by the Museum – and made globally accessible in digital form - they exit the private sphere to be enjoyed by all.
Albrecht Dürer, William Holman Hunt, James McNeill Whistler, Paul Delvaux, Natalia Goncharova and Grayson Perry are among the artists represented in this first exhibition. A second selection will be presented from 21 May to 1 September 2019.
Cost: Free
