Color and Line: Masterworks on Paper

This exhibition features fourteen European masterworks of the 19th and early 20th centuries.

These works highlight the ways in which artists used rich color and meticulous line not only to represent the world in naturalistic fashion but, increasingly, to explore abstraction.
