On this day in 1974, Joseph Hirshhorn’s sculpture collection arrived! Beginning August 5, Hirshhorn’s sculpture collection was moved from his home in Greenwich, Connecticut, to the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden. Many of the pieces were brought to the Garden via helicopter, including Rodin’s “Burghers of Calais,” which weighs several thousand pounds. -- source link
