Happy National Cat Day! The two fancy cheetahs depicted here were included by Francesco Rosselli in his 15th-century print of the Adoration. These guys, and a particularly worried-looking camel, can be seen in the Hoehn Family Galleries as a part of our ongoing exhibition, "Christ: Life, Death and Resurrection."

Collections Collecting Collectors: students in Director Derrick Cartwright's class visited the collection of Bram and Sandy Dijkstra, who were kind enough to open their home for us. We could have stayed longer--like for the whole semester. 😍😍 #DAAAHsgood #art #privatecollections #arthistory #usdily @usd_daaah @usdcas

The billboard is up! The Hoehn Family Galleries and the British Museum invite you to a rare opportunity to see 41 original drawings and prints belonging to the collection of the British Museum by Italian Renaissance artists, including Michelangelo’s The Three Crosses. It is the first time many of these exquisite works will be seen in Southern California and promises to be one of the most critically valued exhibits in the history of our region. Mark your calendars from September 13 to December 13 at the Hoehn Family Galleries. #usdgalleries #britishmuseum #michelangelo #michelangelobuonarotti
