About

In the 1870s, William Walters, a prominent liquor wholesaler and avid art collector, opened his art collections to the public on Wednesdays in April and May. His son Henry commissioned the construction of the Walters Art Museum building in 1905. The Walters collection features 32,000 objects from across the globe representing 55 centuries of history.
