The Terra Foundation for American Art has made a $3.6 million grant to the Smithsonian Institution’s Archives of American Art to digitize, over five years, nearly 1.6 million primary sources relating to a range of artists from the 18th Century to the present. The material includes photographs, sketchbooks, ledgers, diaries and letters associated with such artists as Albert Bierstadt, Thomas Eakins, Winslow Homer, Louise Nevelson, Jackson Pollock and Grant Wood. The archives is the largest and most widely used resource on the history of American art.
