A New Exhibition Presents a Multigenerational Saga of a Wealthy Jewish Family

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Mar 23, 2023

Over 120 works at The Jewish Museum—paintings, Chinese art, illuminated manuscripts, and Judaica unveil the story of a Jewish family's pioneering role in trade, art collecting, architectural patronage, and civic engagement from the early 19th century through World War II. The new exhibition is titled, 'The Sassoons.' Co-curators Claudia Nahson and Esther da Costa Meyer join us to talk about the show on display through Aug. 13.
