In partnership with the Jacob Burns Foundation, the Georgia Museum of Art serves as the primary repository of Gerald Brockhurst’s paintings, prints and drawings, as well as the archive of his correspondence and other written records. Born in Birmingham, England, in 1890, Brockhurst emerged as an outstanding etcher and fashionable portrait painter in the 1920s and 1930s. As part of its commitment to the continued research of Brockhurst’s work, the museum presents this exhibition of 41 prints and drawings by the artist exclusively from the collection of Daniel and Rosalyn Jacobs.
