Curatorial Office Records of the Prints and Drawings Department, 1952-1996 (bulk 1958-1994)

This series contains records of the Prints and Drawings Collection from 1952-1996. These records were primarily created by William Collins, curator from 1958-1960; William Ittman, curator from 1967-1971; and Rafael Fernandez, curator from 1975-1994. In the periods between the tenures of these curators the museum director and/or curators and staff from other departments handled prints and drawings business. Consequently, the series also contains files from the former directors Peter Guille, George Heard Hamilton, and David Brooke, and from curatorial assistants including Tom Fels and Kristen Collins. There is also a group of files from Egbert Haverkamp Begemann, professor of art history at Yale University, related to his 1964 publication of Drawings from the Clark Art Institute. In general the files consist of correspondence about prints and drawings acquisitions, loans, and reproductions, research for catalogues and exhibits, inventories of the collection, bills, student papers, and departmental reports.
