Ruskin (1992), and An Ideal Country: Paintings by Dwight William Tryon in the Freer Gallery of Art (1990). In 2004 she originated an exhibition for the High Museum, After Whistler: The Artist and His Influence on American Painting, which was also shown at the Detroit Institute of Arts; and in 2016, with Robyn Asleson, she organized The Lost Symphony: Whistler and the Perfection of Art for the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery of the Smithsonian Institution, which won the Global Fine Art Award for Best Thematic Impressionist/Modern Exhibition of that year. Dr. Merrill is currently writing a book on Whistler’s “Ten O’Clock” lecture of 1885.
