John Wilmerding, 1980, National Gallery of Art, Gallery Archives

Wilmerding's exhibitions--ranging from monographic shows on artists such as Fitz Hugh Lane and John F. Peto, to installations of important private collections and thematic exhibitions like the majestic American Light: The Luminist Movement, 1850–1875--helped establish the American art  department at the National Gallery and introduced literally thousands to our nation's artistic treasures.
