The Joseph F. McCrindle Foundation presented to the Walters in 2009 23 works on paper by a number of 19thcentury French artists. McCrindle was the founder of the Transatlantic Review and the publisher for such authors as W. H. Auden, Harold Pinter, John Updike and Iris Murdoch. His interests as a collector were wideranging: they included Old Master paintings and drawings as well as 19th-century works on paper. The Walters is among the 30 institutions to benefit from his generous foresight. Drawings and watercolors from the McCrindle collection, by such artists as Delacroix, Meissonier, Doré and Gérôme, will be exhibited along with several other recent donations.
