Collection Highlights

All Collection Highlights
  • Untitled, 1986

    Olivier Mosset

    This large, horizontally oriented abstract painting is visually divided into two square portions. On the left, alternating red and purple stripes of the same width span the height of the canvas. On the right, stripes of the same color and size run horizontally from the right edge to the painting’s overall center. The lines formed by the stripes are very straight and even.

  • Femme retroussant sa chemise (Woman Lifting Her Chemise), 1901

    Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

    Femme retroussant sa chemise (Woman Lifting Her Chemise)
  • Milkweed, 1955

    Lee Krasner

    This vertically oriented canvas seems to contain three layers. Softly defined rectangles in shades of mottled green, white, and cream form the background. Six large, amorphous black shapes with ragged edges rest on top. Finally, three cream-colored slivers extend vertically from the base of painting on its right side. Near the top and to the left of these forms, three small orange shapes peep out from background.
  • Étude pour "Le Chahut" (Study for "Le Chahut"), 1889

    Georges Seurat

    Étude pour "Le Chahut" (Study for "Le Chahut")
  • Chemin de halage à Argenteuil (Towpath at Argenteuil, Winter), 1875-1876

    Claude Monet

    This wintery landscape features a path that follows a still gray river as it curves from the bottom right corner of the canvas and recede into the distance under an overcast sky. On the right side of the painting, smokestacks on a distant are reflected in the water. Four small figures summarily rendered in dark tones walk on the path, with one appearing to move toward the viewer. To the left is a patch of trees and grass that peeks out beneath melting snow.
  • Peaceable Kingdom, ca. 1848

    Edward Hicks

    Peaceable Kingdom
  • Light Matrix, 2005

    Leo Villareal

    Small white dots of varying brightness speckle a wall of ten panels of dark-colored glass as seen from the outside. These dots seem to fit into a matrix of horizontal and vertical rows but without a discernable pattern. This wall of windows only fills the bottom half of the image, and a sky filled with ominously dark clouds is visible above.
