James Duncan : An Enlightened Victorian Paperback / softback
by Andrew Watson
Paperback / softback
Description
The first Scottish collector to purchase an Impressionist painting, Duncan had an extraordinary eye as a collector at a time when Victorian sensibilities frowned upon many modern works.
At his estate, Benmore in Argyllshire, Duncan amassed an internationally important collection, housed in his own vast gallery and available for public view, along with his other projects, a fernery and a sugar refinery.
