Contemporary British Prints
July 26 - September 29, 2002
Introduction
Like most museums, The RISD Museum has built its exceptional collection through the great generosity of its patrons. We have one of the finest collections of 18th- and 19th-century British watercolors in this country, due to the continuing philanthropy of one anonymous donor. We are currently developing a collection of contemporary British art through the encouragement of several donors whose recent gifts are highlighted in this installation.
