Ned Warren donates his sculpture collection to the Museum of Fine Arts.

In donating his collection of early Greek and Roman erotic sculpture, Warren declares, “The collection was my plea against that in Boston which contradicted my (pagan) love.” The pieces are stored in the basement for many years. When finally displayed in the 1930s, the genitalia on the vases are painted black and on the statues are plastered over. Nevertheless, Warren begins a long association with the museum, donating and purchasing art on its behalf. “I have always said and believed that it was hate of Boston that made me work for Boston,” he later admits.
