About the Item

French School, circa 1780. A phenomenal pair of 18th century French School Nautra Morta paintings on canvas. Each master work depicts a rich tapestry of romantic imagery including doves, a quiver, roses, torches, musical instruments and more. Each painting is set inside a period gilt wood frame and feature a Cooper Union Museum label to verso. -The Cooper Union Museum for the Arts of Decoration was founded in 1895 by sisters Sarah Cooper Hewitt, Eleanor Garnier Hewitt, and Amy Hewitt Green, daughters of Abram S. Hewitt and grand-daughters of Peter Cooper, founder of The Cooper Union. Following its official opening, in 1897, on the fourth floor of Cooper Union’s historic Foundation Building, the Museum’s collections were enhanced by the collecting acumen of Sarah and Eleanor Hewitt, and by gifts from J.P. Morgan and George A. Hearn, among other donors. The Museum was intended as a reference collection of worldwide material culture for the use of Cooper Union students as well as the general public. By the 1960s the Museum contained more than 90,000 items, including textiles, wallpaper, drawings, prints, furniture, ceramics, woodwork, metalwork, and costume accessories. In 1963, the administration of Cooper Union closed the Museum for an evaluation of its relationship to the college’s educational program. A Committee to Save Cooper Union Museum was formed, but by 1968 the college administration had signed an agreement to transfer the Museum collections to the Smithsonian Institution. The transfer took place over the next three years, and the collections of the Cooper Union Museum became the nucleus of the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum. - The Cooper Union Archives
