painting collections
Curated artwork assemblages
Painting collections are assembled groups of artworks, typically gathered by museums, galleries, or private collectors.
The phrase emphasizes curation and ownership rather than the paintings themselves: The museum's painting collection spans five centuries.
A collector might specialize by period, style, or artist: She built an impressive collection of Dutch masters.
