Sometimes the best way to imagine a better future is to look at an exemplary moment in history. We’re proud to showcase this ad from our archives. With the support of Ron Culp and Sara Lee Corporation, Philippe de Montebello for the first time brought art treasures from the Hermitage to America.

Our agency has played a part in such important exhibitions as “Treasures of Tutanhkhamun” and the Brooklyn Museum’s “Monet and the Mediterranean.”
