About the exhibition

Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts presented The One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary Exhibition in Philadelphia in 1955. The anniversary presentation is documented through individual paintings and their historical catalogue references. Identified paintings include Robert Henri’s Young Woman in White (1904; oil on canvas; accession 1949.9.1) and William Michael Harnett’s The Old Violin (1886; oil on canvas; accession 1993.15.1). These works form a partial checklist reconstructed from museum object histories. The complete original catalogue and exact opening and closing days remain unverified.
