Loan Exhibition of Important Early Italian Paintings in the Possession of Notable American Collectors

About the exhibition

Duveen Brothers presented a loan exhibition of early Italian paintings from American collections in New York in 1924. Object histories distinguish its catalogue numbers from those in the illustrated version published in 1926; the later publication is not another exhibition. Exact surviving examples are Grifo di Tancredi’s Saint Peter (c. 1310; tempera on panel), listed as no. 2 and Andrea del Castagno’s Portrait of a Man (c. 1450; tempera on panel), listed as no. 32. This is a partial checklist reconstructed from the objects’ museum histories; precise opening and closing days remain unknown.
