In 1995 the Orlando Museum of Art organized and held the exhibition titled American Art Pottery: Selections from The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art. Alice Cooney Frelinghuysen, Curator of American Decorative Arts at The Metropolitan Museum Art, served as guest curator for the exhibition. The 180 selected examples trace the Art Pottery movement in America. The exhibition includes objects dating from 1879 to 1963. Many of the most notable art potteries are represented, including Coultry, Fulper, Grueby, Newcomb, George Ohr, J. B. Owens, Pewabic, Teco, Tiffany Studios, Weller, and T. J. Wheatley, among others.

(Louisine Havemeyer and her husband, Henry Osborne Havemey...)
Louisine Havemeyer and her husband, Henry Osborne Havemeyer, were pioneering American patrons of art at the end of the last century. They assembled a collection of works by 19th-century French artists, as well as paintings by Rembrandt, El Greco and other old masters. This volume accompanies a recent exhibition at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, that brought together works from Mrs Havemeyer's 1929 bequest to the museum, from other gifts made to the museum while the Havemeyers were alive, and important pieces that remained in private hands or were given to other institutions, offering an opportunity to explore a broad sampling of the collection formed by this famous couple.
