According to records kept in this journal, my last visit to the Morgan Library and Museum was in March 2022. Every museum has permanent and temporary exhibits. The library, featuring a Gutenberg Bible, was unchanged.
The major exhibit was A Lively Mind: Jane Austen at 250. The manuscripts, artwork, books, and artifacts present compelling new perspectives on Austen’s literary achievement, her personal style, and her global legacy. Austen is best known for her novel Pride and Prejudice.
A second exhibit was Lisa Yukavage: Drawings. She is a contemporary American artist. The exhibition features a wide range of her explorations with various materials, including work in graphite, pen, Conte, pastel, charcoal, distemper, monotype, gouache, watercolor, acrylic, and ink on paper.
The second floor featured A Celebration: Acquisitions in Honor of the Morgan's Centennial. It was a "mixed bag" of artworks from the museum's collection.
