Master Drawings from the Woodner Collection

About the exhibition

The Fogg Art Museum presented master drawings from the Woodner Collection in 1985. The documented works include drawings by Hans Hoffmann and Rembrandt. Object histories distinguish references to the exhibition checklist from references to a fully illustrated catalogue. Exact surviving examples are Hans Hoffmann’s Red Squirrel (1578; watercolor and gouache over traces of graphite on parchment), listed as no. 95 and Rembrandt van Rijn’s Joseph Recounting His Dreams (early 1640s; reed pen and brown ink with brown wash, heightened with white, on laid paper), listed as no. 100. This is a partial checklist reconstructed from the objects’ museum histories; precise opening and closing days remain unknown.
