The Hood Museum of Art's holdings of European art are strong in several areas, most notably French and Italian painting of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, nineteenth-century sculpture, and early modern painting. The collection includes important works by artists such as Albert Bouts, Claude Lorrain, Charles Natoire, and Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux. Its greatest strength, however, is in prints, especially from the Northern Renaissance and Baroque periods and from nineteenth-century France, with fine examples of the work of some of the greatest masters of this medium: Dürer, Lucas van Leyden, Rembrandt, Canaletto, Goya, Géricault, and Manet. |
