About this document
Purpose of Winterthur Museum by nisa saidatun is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The passage discusses the Winterthur Museum, which is both a collection and a historic house. It is unusual for a museum in the US to display a great collection within a country house that has been in a single family for over a century. The renovations between 1929-1931 allowed the house to remain a family residence while becoming a museum. Displays at Winterthur have evolved over time to present objects in context and show their meaning, using period rooms resembling how they would have originally appeared
