The American watercolor and drawing collection is particularly strong, with major works by such figures as John Singleton Copley, John James Audubon, Mary Cassatt, James McNeill Whistler, Maurice Prendergast, John Sloan, George Bellows, Marguerite Zorach, and Andrew Wyeth. For more on this collection, see the museum's fully illustrated 2005 publication Marks of Distinction: Two Hundred Years of American Drawings and Watercolors from the Hood Museum of Art.
