THE OBJECTS OF THE GIBSON HOUSE
Between 1859 and 1954, three generations of Gibson family members and scores of employees lived at the Gibson House. They collected objects of value and objects of utility. They inherited furniture and artwork from family members, and purchased trendy clothing and dinnerware from Boston-area makers. They brought home souvenirs from their travels. They used and admired these objects in different ways and at different times in the almost 100 years that the Gibson House was a home.
