Contracts, 1984-1985
Scope and Content Note
A comprehensive exhibition of prints by Edgar Degas was organized at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston in celebration of the 150th anniversary of the artist's birth. Ellen S. Jacobowitz installed the exhibition in Philadelphia, and the show later traveled to the Hayward Gallery in London. This display of 225 images, comprising all Degas' known etchings and lithographs, was made possible by grants from the National Endowment for the Arts and supported in Philadelphia by The Pew Memorial Trust.
