Exhibition Tour: American Watercolors, 1880–1990: Into the Light

Join curator Miriam Stewart for an in-depth discussion about works in the exhibition American Watercolors, 1880–1990: Into the Light, on view from May 20 to August 13, 2023. Stewart will share insights about the featured artists’ creative, and sometimes unusual, watercolor techniques.

American Watercolors, 1880–1990 presents more than a hundred compelling and rarely seen watercolors by both well-known and historically underrepresented American artists selected from the Harvard Art Museums’ deep and diverse holdings. Discover how watercolorists leveraged the imaginative and experimental capacity of the medium to create marvelously diverse works over more than a century.

Led by:

Miriam Stewart, Curator of the Collection, Division of European and American Art
