Dumbarton Oaks is a research institute, museum, and historic garden affiliated with Harvard University and located in Georgetown, Washington, DC.
The Dumbarton Oaks Museum is composed of four collections that testify to the passion of Robert Woods and Mildred Barnes Bliss for collecting extraordinary art. The Byzantine Collection comprises art made in the medieval eastern Mediterranean, along with comparative works from the ancient Greek and Roman, western European, and Islamic periods. Art in the Pre-Columbian Collection covers a vast geographic area that includes Mesoamerica, the Andes, and the Central America and Colombia regions of Latin America. The House Collection consists of European decorative arts and paintings, dating from the Renaissance through the modern eras, as well as a small collection of Asian art. The Coins and Seals Collection includes the most important collection of Byzantine lead seals in the world, numbering some 17,000 specimens and over 12,000 coins, one of the largest and most comprehensive collections in the world.
The Museum is free and open to the public Tuesdays-Sundays. The museum team delivers 2-3 innovative exhibitions per year informed by cutting-edge research and including both the permanent collec tions and loans. Reporting to the Chief Curator, the Registrar will work collaboratively with the Museum team and other departments to steward the collections and support the public mission of Dumbarton Oaks, including access to the collections.
