You need not apply to Harvard University to enjoy the benefits of their oldest art museum. Opened to the public in 1895, this museum originally contained only art reproductions, but in 1927 when the museum moved to its current location it began collecting both American and European originals. At present, the museum contains over 2,300 paintings, 2,100 decorative art objects, and 1,300 works of sculpture which are displayed in its galleries on a rotational basis. The Fogg Art Museum is one of three Harvard art museums. Western art from the Middle Ages to the present, as well as Modern and Contemporary art from 1900 to present are on display here, with an emphasis on early Italian Renaissance, British Pre-Raphaelite, and the French art of the nineteenth century. The Western painting collection of the Fogg Art Museum is considered to be the finest of any college or university art museum in the United States. Its American painting selection includes the largest collection of Copley in the country. The museum also contains one of the best collections of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist work in America. The Fogg Art Museum has a magnificent two-story courtyard based on the sixteenth-century Church of the Madonna de San Biago in Montepulciano, Italy. Masterpieces by Fra Angelico, Ingres, Rembrant, Renoir, Rodin, Rothko, and Whistler fill the galleries and halls surrounding the courtyard. A world-renowned collection of 60,000 prints, 8,000 photographs and 10,000 drawings by American and European artists from the fourteenth century to present are housed at the museum's Agnes Mongan Center. The Fogg Museum continues to be an important source for art education. The Straus Center for Conservation, the oldest research center for scientific study of works of art in the United States, is also located in the museum. A gift shop is located in the courtyard and offers reproductions of many of the masterpieces displayed in the museum's collection, catalogues, and art books. Slides of the collections are also available through the Museum's Photographic Services. Special exhibitions and events celebrating the museum's paintings, drawings, photographs, and sculptures occur throughout the year and it is best to contact the museum for updated showings.
