Klappentext zu „MORGAN - The Collector “
The essays in this lavishly illustrated volume offer a multifaceted portrait of American financier J. Pierpont Morgan (1837-1913) as a collector of art. A riveting exploration of Morgan's acquisitions from antiquities to medieval manuscripts to Old Master paintings and European decorative arts, "Morgan-The Collector" introduces the reader to how and why he amassed his vast collection. The lively essays also serve as a tribute to Linda Roth, curator at Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, Hartford, CT, who dedicated much of her forty-year career to researching Morgan and the over 1,500 works from his collection now in the museum. This much-needed publication focuses on Morgan as a collector and is directed at both a scholarly and more general audience that is interested in the history of collecting, America in the Gilded Age, Pierpont Morgan, and European art.
