Artists and Their Circles

About the exhibition

Corcoran Gallery of Art presented Artists and Their Circles in 1978. The documented works include self-portraits and portraits of other artists, with exact object identities retained for the individual prints and drawings. Exact surviving examples are Childe Hassam’s Virginia (1918; lithograph in black on wove paper) and Peggy Bacon’s A Few Ideas (1927; drypoint in black on wove paper). The surviving museum histories establish only part of the checklist; exact opening and closing days remain unverified.
