Info
Dietrich von Bothmer (1918-2009) was Head of the Department of Greek and Roman Art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art from 1959, Chairman from 1973, and Distinguished Research Curator from his retirement in 1990. He was a pre-eminent scholar of Greek vase-painting, who amassed an extensive study collection of fragments that enabled him to attribute and reassemble numerous vases from pieces dispersed across different collections. Bothmer began acquiring these fragments in the late 1960s, and gifted the majority to the Metropolitan Museum upon his death in 2009. Upwards of 300 fragments, as well as some complete vessels, were donated the Michael C. Carlos Museum between 2002 and 2006.
