As the official image rights and reproductions representative Art Resource will have access to one of the oldest and most prestigious university art museums in America and the third oldest such museum in the world. The Gallery’s archive includes more than 185,000 objects including works from ancient times to the present day representing civilizations from around the globe.


Since its founding in 1832, the Yale University Art Gallery has amassed a comprehensive collection that is widely known for several areas of particular strength. These include the Greek and Italian vases in the Stoddard Collection, a large group of objects excavated by Yale from the ancient Roman city of Dura-Europos, the Jarves Collection of early Italian painting, works of Asian, Near Eastern, and Precolumbian art from the Olsen Collection, and the newly installed Charles B. Benenson collection of African art. Also of note are the outstanding collections of American painting, silver, and decorative art from the colonial period to contemporary works by Alexander Calder, Jasper Johns, and Agnes Martin. The Gallery’s collection of modern European painting includes such favorites as Edouard Manet’s Young Woman Reclining in Spanish Costume, Vincent van Gogh’s The Night Café [pictured above], and Pablo Picasso’s Mother and Child (First Steps).

Art Resource currently represents more than 120 major museums including the Museum of Modern Art of New York, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The New York Public Library, The Pierpont Morgan Library and Museum, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery, Tate Modern and Tate Britain, The British Museum, and all fifty-one national museums of France, including the Musée du Louvre, the Musée d’Orsay, and the Centre Pompidou, as well as all 21 Berlin State Museums, among them the Egyptian Museum and the Pergamon Museum.
