"The Crocker Art Gallery became the first Art Museum built west of Chicago in the middle of the last century. Mr. E. B. Crocker collected, as the nucleus of the museum exhibitions, paintings and drawings of the European schools from the Renaissance through the 19th century. Since his founding of the Crocker Art Gallery, others have generously contributed to the advancement of its value as a cultural center through the gifts of sculpture, glass, pottery and porcelain, fabrics and costumes, tapestries, oriental arts, paintings and crafts."--excerpted from the foreword.
