Explore a premier collection of Asian and American art from a renowned benefactor.
This exhibition catalog presents highlights from the Freer Collection, housed in the National Museum and opened to students, researchers, and the public. It connects American painting, especially Whistler’s work, with a broad range of Oriental pieces—Chinese and Japanese painting, pottery, bronze, and sculpture—drawn from a gift that helped shape a national art heritage.

- See American paintings by James McNeill Whistler and other leading artists, with hundreds of examples represented in the full collection.
- Discover Chinese and Japanese paintings, screens, kakemono, makimono, and albums, plus pottery, glass, bronze, stone, and wood objects.
- Learn about the collection’s origins, its guardian ideals, and how it became a national treasure for study and inspiration.
- Understand the exhibition’s scope: the special display comprises about 175 objects drawn from a much larger collection.

Ideal for readers seeking art history context, museum curatorship, and a window into early 20th‑century American and Eastern art exchange.
