George Abrams (Harvard College ’54, Harvard Law ’57) is internationally regarded as the preeminent collector of historical Dutch drawings. In this session, he will discuss themes, techniques, and functions of Dutch drawings from the 16th to the 18th century. Featured masterpieces from his collection include works by Pieter Bruegel the Elder, Rembrandt, Adriaen van Ostade, and Maria Sibylla Merian—all of which Abrams has donated to or has placed on loan to the Harvard Art Museums. Abrams will be joined in this conversation by drawings curator Joachim Homann.
