Abstract

The article discusses the Robbins Collection of Old Master Prints and Drawings, which was bequeathed to the library by Winfield Robbins, a collector from Arlington, Massachusetts. The collection, consisting of over 150,000 prints, was sold by Tremont Auctions due to a lack of space in the library. The auction included a variety of prints, including Japanese prints, mezzotint portraits, and works by artists such as Rembrandt van Rijn and Albrecht Dürer. The auction attracted both in-person and online bidders. [Extracted from the article]
