The Tweed Museum of Art possesses a surprisingly large and increasingly recognized collection of European and American paintings. Most of these were purchased by George P. Tweed and include major paintings by Charles Daubigny, Theodore Rousseau, Jean-Francois Millet, and Narcisse Diaz de la Pena. The works were donated by Alice Tweed Tuohy to the Tweed Museum of Art, University of Minnesota Duluth, over a period of many years following Mr. Tweed's death in 1946.
