The exhibition of the "Arts in America in the 18th Century"
described in this catalogue has been made possible by the cooperation
of the following museums and art dealers. I should
like to extend to them my most sincere thanks on behalf of the
college for the loans which they have so generously made:
Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Massachusetts
The Cincinnati Art Museum, Cincinnati, Ohio
The Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, Ohio
The New Haven Colony Historical Society
The New-York Historical Society, New York, N. Y.
The Philadelphia Historical Society, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Yale University Art Gallery, New Haven, Connecticut
Kennedy & Company, New York, N. Y.
M. Knoedler & Company, New York, N. Y.
The Old Print Shop, Inc., New York, N. Y.
I should like, as well, to thank the members of the staffs of
each of these museums and dealers for the personal time and
effort which they have given to our curator, Mrs. King, in the
selection of material and the preparation of this catalogue.
The college is also much indebted to the lecturers and musicians
who have agreed to take part in the symposium accompanying
this exhibition; to Professor McLaughlin and the members
of the Oberlin Dramatic Association for their willingness
to produce "The Contrast"; and to Mr. Julian Fowler, Librarian
of the College who has placed on display a group of books illustrative
of the period. Such a combination of lectures, drama,
music and exhibition as this is a new step in an effort on the
part of the Department of Fine Arts at Oberlin to give a comprehensive
picture of the arts in a single period in history. It
is necessarily modest in scope but it is to be hoped that it may
be only a prelude to more comprehensive future symposia both
here and elsewhere.
