Technical Drawings
Technical drawings provide detailed information and measurements for selected instruments in the Museum's collection, allowing scholars to better understand their construction and artisans an opportunity to create reproductions of them.
About the MFA
The original MFA was founded in 1870 and opened its doors to the public on July 4, 1876, the nation's centennial. Built in Copley Square, the MFA was then home to 5,600 works of art. Over the next several years, the collection and number of visitors grew exponentially, and in 1909 the Museum moved to its current home on Huntington Avenue.
A Missing Van Gogh Discovered
The MFA and the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam, have discovered a painting by Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890) underneath the artist's painting, Ravine, owned by the MFA.
