This exhibition offered a historic opportunity to view Andrew Wyeth's rarely-seen tempera painting, Ides of March (1974).

Along with more than 30 of the studies that were instrumental to his development of the composition. Assembled together for the first time, these provided remarkable insight into the artist's creative approach and evocative imagery. 

The exhibition was generously funded by M&T Bank
