William S. Lieberman was a prolific and active art collector with a particular passion for works on paper. Before becoming chairman of what is now called the　Department of Modern and Contemporary Art at　The Met, he was a print curator at the Museum of Modern Art. He donated 767 works to The Met, of which 379 came to the Department of Drawings and Prints. His collection contained numerous rare works and prints issued in small editions, such as Lucian Freud’s Ill in Paris (1948) and Robert Rauschenberg’s Accident (1963), as well as art by younger figures, such as Kiki Smith. This print by the Spanish Surrealist Miró show drawings with an inscription to Lieberman, testifying to their close relationship.
