See more than 100 of Mark Rothko’s most compelling paintings on paper, many on view for the first time. They range from early figurative subjects and surrealist works to the soft-edged rectangular fields, often realized at monumental scale, for which Rothko is best known.

Jan van Goyen composed this grand, visually compelling panorama of Rhenen, a medieval walled city on the Rhine River, in 1646. Situating the viewer near the winding road that leads to the city, he masterfully captured the overarching sky, undulating terrain, and vast sweeps of Dutch countryside for which that region was known.

Sensational and scandalous for an American audience unused to seeing classically nude statues of women, this figure by Hiram Powers caused a frenzy when it was first exhibited in the mid-19th century. Curious viewers came in droves to see it after Powers sent several copies from Italy, where he created the work.
