A Collection without Borders

Hispanic Society Museum & Library

Jul 23 – Nov 1, 2026 Washington Heights

Paintings, portraits and decorative objects from Spain, Portugal, Latin America, Goa and the Philippines, drawn from the museum’s own collection.

The museum’s yearly collection show fills its Main Court, a terracotta re-creation of a sixteenth-century Spanish Renaissance courtyard. Paintings of the 1500s to the 1900s, from religious figures and portraits to a few abstract works, line the arcade, and cases in the middle of the court hold objects from Spain, Portugal, Mexico, South America and Asia.

Many were acquired by founder Archer Milton Huntington early in the twentieth century, others bought or given since his death in 1955; some are on view for the first time in decades.
