American Quilts and Folk Art

This exhibition features seven quilts—all recent additions to the Museum's outstanding quilt collection, only one of which has been shown at the Museum before. The display also includes a selection of folk painting and furniture from The American Wing's collection, as well as two important paintings by Edward Hicks (American, 1780–1840), on loan from the Peter J. Solomon Family Collection.

The exhibition is presented in two consecutive rotations, with the first on view through January 8, 2016, and the second on view through September 6, 2016.
