From the Private Collections of Texas : European Art, Ancient to Modern Hardback

Hardback

Description

The Lone Star State is home to a dazzling array of world-class artworks, many in private collections and rarely exhibited.

Reflecting the Kimbell Art Museum’s own collecting strengths, this book focuses on the art of Europe and the ancient Mediterranean from about 700 B.C. to around 1950. Over 40 prominent collections are featured along with works that have been given to museums in Texas or have left the state through gift or sale.

Among the artists included are Thomas Gainsborough, Paul Gauguin, Guercino, Henri Matisse, Piet Mondrian, Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and Vincent van Gogh.

The distinguished scholar Richard R. Brettell contributes a comprehensive essay on the importance of private collecting in Texas. Distributed for the Kimbell Art MuseumExhibition Schedule:Kimbell Art Museum (11/22/09 – 3/21/10)
