Loan Exhibition of Modern French Art from the Chester Dale Collection for the Benefit of the French Hospital of New York

About the exhibition

Wildenstein Galleries presented modern French art from the Chester Dale Collection in 1928 for the benefit of the French Hospital of New York. The documented selection brought together paintings by several generations of artists. Examples securely identified in the museum’s object histories are Amedeo Modigliani’s Nude on a Blue Cushion (1917; oil on linen) and Henri Rousseau’s Boy on the Rocks (1895/1897; oil on linen). The connected works form a partial checklist; exact opening and closing days are not established by this evidence.
