Williams College Museum of Art. Gift of the friends of J. Hodge Markgraf '52, Ebenezer Fitch Professor of Chemistry (1930-2007).
715 molecules is a large-scale stone table with benches that is covered on every surface with molecular diagrams. The artist collaborated with students, professors, and alumni in the sciences and the arts, as well as staff from many Williams departments and at least three former Williams presidents, to see this permanent public art installation come to fruition.
