Decorative Art, 1763-1955

 Series

Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

This artificial collection is made up material that was formerly in curatorial hands. Most items came to the museum along with works of art and were added to curatorial holdings. They are, however, descriptive in nature and have thus been transferred to the Archives. This material is important in that it casts light on American works of art in the collection.
