Gallery Talk: Marks, Stamps, and Tags—Visible Traces of Provenance in the Solomon Collection

Join exhibition curator Casey Monahan as she discusses the visible traces of ownership, or provenance, seen in works in the exhibition The Solomon Collection: Dürer to Degas and Beyond (May 24–August 17, 2025).

The Solomon Collection: Dürer to Degas and Beyond celebrates a significant recent bequest to the Harvard Art Museums from passionate collectors Arthur K. and Mariot F. Solomon. The exhibition spotlights over 135 works, including paintings, sculptures, drawings, and prints by some of the most significant artists from the Renaissance to the 20th century, and offers visitors an intimate view into the highly personal yet inherently collaborative nature of art collecting.

Led by:
Casey Monahan, Cunningham Senior Curatorial Assistant for the Collection, Division of European and American Art
