The East Room was designed as a treasury for Pierpont Morgan's remarkable collection of rare printed books. This view shows the walnut bookshelves and magnificent ceiling. On view in the East Room are examples from the Morgan Library & Museum's extraordinary collection of medieval illuminated manuscripts, rare printed books and bindings, and handwritten manuscripts of great writers, artists, and composers from the Renaissance to the present day.
