A selection of paintings, watercolors, drawings, and prints by the New England modernist Maurice Prendergast (1858–1924), all drawn from the Museum's collection. His watercolors, which provide an engaging chronicle of daily life, capture fleeting, incidental imagery in shimmering hues. The exhibition includes the forty large-scale watercolors once bound in the Large Boston Public Garden Sketchbook.
