The Norton Museum of Art's collection of European art includes
excellent examples by artists such as Lucas Cranach the Elder, Joos
van Cleve the
Elder, Giovanni Bezzi (called Il Nosadella), Valerio Castello, Luca
Giordano, and Alessandro Magnasco.
Worthy
of special notice are the Flemish paintings of the early 17th century
by contemporaries and pupils
of Peter Paul Rubens, such as Anthony van Dyck, and a fine group
of 18th- and early 19th-century British portraits by artists such
as Joshua
Reynolds, George Romney, Henry Raeburn, and Thomas Lawrence.
