Rubens had painted it for the church of the Augustinians in Mechelen where it was installed in 1631. In the eighteenth century, the church authorities sold it to a dealer, it remained as part of the Rutland estate until 1911 when the 8th Duke of Rutland sold it to the German-Jewish banker and science entrepreneur Leopold Koppel. On Koppel's death in 1933, it was stolen by senior Nazi Hermann Göring for his private collection. At the end of World War II it was discovered by American troops in a salt mine and was reclaimed, with several other paintings, by Leopold's son Albert; the painting is among the 360 objects in the museum's collection that changed hands in Continental Europe during the Nazi era, according to the American Alliance of Museums Nazi-Era Provenance Internet Portal. The Peristyle, a 1,750-seat concert hall in the east wing, is the principal concert space for the Toledo Symphony Orchestra and hosts the Museum's Masters series. Added in 1933, it was designed in classical style to match the museum's exterior.

Seating is divided into floor and riser seating, with the riser seating arranged in a half-circle, similar to a Greek theater. At the back of the riser seating are 28 Ionic columns. A sculpture garden containing postwar works was added in 2001. A Center for the Visual Arts, designed by Frank Gehry, was added in the 1990s, it includes the museum's library as well as studio and classroom space for the art department of the University of Toledo. In 2000, the museum chose the architectural firm of SANAA to design a new building to house the institution's glass collection, it was the firm's first commission in the United States. Front Inc. was appointed to assist the architects in developing technical concepts for the glass wall systems. Much of the money to build the Glass Pavilion came through the largest public fundraising drive in Toledo's history; the building's curved glass walls were imported from China. The Glass Pavilion opened in August 2006 to considerable critical acclaim. ArtNet described it as "a striking symbol of cultural power.

Intended to give pride of place to the institution’s collection of art glass." In his review for The New York Times, Nicolai Ouroussoff wrote, "Composed with exquisite delicacy, the pavilion's elegant maze of curved glass walls represents the latest monument to evolve in a chain extending back to the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles." Ouroussoff commented on the pavilion's relationship with the museum's other buildings: "The Glass Pavilion is part of a loosely knit complex that includes the Beaux-Arts-style art museum here and the University of Toledo’s Center for the Visual Arts, designed by Frank Gehry. With its grand staircase leading up to a row of Ionic columns, the original museum is both a temple to art and a monument to the belief in high culture’s ability to uplift the life of the worker; the new structure’s low, horizontal form, fits in this context with remarkable delicacy, as if the architects hesitated to disturb the surroundings." The building showcases the museum's original glass collection and several new works, including one prominent glass sculpture by Dale Chihuly.
