Museum of Fine Arts - Montreal
Museum of Fine Arts. A group of wealthy Montreal art collectors founded the Art Association of Montreal, the forerunner of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. Its objectives were to present exhibitions and lectures, establish an art school, assemble a permanent collection of paintings and sculptures and set up a reading room and library. It was the first venture of its kind in Canada. Exhibitions were held in rented halls and public sites.

National Gallery of Ireland - Dublin
The collection spans from the 14th to the 20th centuries and includes all the major Continental Schools. Irish painting is charted from its re-emergence in the 17th century to Jack B. Yeats, Ireland's most important 20th century artist. Portraits by Hamilton, Barry, Lavery and Orpen hang alongside a tradition of landscape (Roberts, O'Conor, Hone) and subject painting (Danby, Osborne, Leech). The Italian School is the second most numerous. Early gilded altarpieces and Renaissance treasures by Fra Angelico, Mantegna and Titian precede one of the most distinguished collections of 17th century paintings outside Italy. A Caravaggio, rediscovered in Dublin, is shown with his European followers, while in the Baroque Gallery there are large canvases by Lanfranco, Maratta, Rubens and others.
