Book excerpt: Renaissance and Impressionist painting from the holdings of the acclaimed Omaha museum The first comprehensive reexamination of this Omaha museum's permanent collection in over three decades, European Paintings and Sculpture from Joslyn Art Museum marks a significant milestone for the institution and draws deserved attention to the artworks in its care. The museum's collection of European painting and sculpture includes masterworks by Titian, Paolo Veronese, Claude Lorrain, Rembrandt, Gustave Courbet, Edgar Degas, Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro, as well as significant holdings of 19th-century French academic painting, with major examples by Jules Breton, William-Adolphe Bouguereau and Jean-Léon Gérôme. Despite the importance of this collection, previous publications have only addressed these works within a broader selection of museum highlights. The new catalog presents 100 artworks dating from the late 13th to the early 20th century and representing many of the most important artists, schools and styles of European art history.
