The Farnsworth Art Museum offers art from 18th- and 19th-century masters Gilbert Stuart, Thomas Sully, Thomas Eakins, Eastman Johnson, Fitz Hugh Lane, Frank Benson, Childe Hassam, and Maurice Prendergast as well as works by 20th-century sculptor Louise Nevelson. It has opened four new galleries to showcase contemporary art. Its Wyeth Center features works of Andrew, N.C., and Jamie Wyeth.
Two historic buildings--the Farnsworth Homestead and the Olson House--complete the museum complex. The Farnsworth Homestead, adjacent to the main museum in Rockland, is distinguished by its Greek-revival exterior and Victorian interior. Painter Andrew Wyeth created many of his best-loved works at the Olson House. The house is 14.5 miles from the museum in Cushing, Maine.
