Malcolm Thompson (1916 - ), Portrait of a Boy, undated. Oil on canvas. MMoA Permanent Collection. Donated by Alison C. Ives. MMoA is fortunate to have five oil paintings by Malcolm Thompson in the permanent collection, however all are on unstretched canvas with no way of hanging for display.

Otto E. Liebig (1918-2008), Still Life with Fruit, undated. Watercolor. MMoA Permanent Collection. Donated by Otto E. Liebig. Confusingly, MMoA has two paintings by Otto Liebig that share this title! The other is a framed oil painting featuring a pineapple.
Earl Kenneth Bates (1895-1973), Study for Buck in the Snow, undated. Pastel on stretched paper. Donated by Christopher Bates (the artist's grandson). Not only is this pastel unframed, but also not under glass--making it susceptible to smudging and tearing!
