Book excerpt: "Sir William Van Horne (1843-1915), a gifted connoisseur most famously associated with the building of the Canadian Pacific Railway, amassed of one of the most extensive collections of Japanese ceramics in North America. Obsession is an illuminating account of the how and why behind his passion for studying and acquiring nearly 1,200 objects. Ron Graham assembles a profile of Van Horne's larger-than-life personality as well as essays about his place at the top of the art collectors in Montreal's Golden Square Mile and the afterlife of his collection following his death. Accompanying the texts are historical photographs and documents, a detailed catalogue of over three hundred individual pieces in the Royal Ontario Museum and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, and a selection of beautiful reproductions of Van Horne's personal notebooks and exquisite watercolours from the archives of the Art Gallery of Ontario. Published in conjunction with a major exhibition at the Gardiner Museum in Toronto and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Obsession presents a remarkable collection in the context of the life and career of a nineteenth-century Canadian business giant."--

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Morse Collection of Japanese Pottery The collection of Japanese pottery herein briefly catalogued has been brought together by one collector, who throughout the task (which is by no means ended) has had in view certain definite objects. One of these objects, and the main one, has been to make a collection of the pottery of Japan which should parallel the famous collections of the potteries of England, Holland, France, and adjacent countries, as seen in the museums of Europe. In the great museums of art in Paris, Berlin, and other places, one may find the pottery of the various countries of Europe fully represented. These collections often represent the ovens and signatures known from the earliest time to the latest. Turning to Japan, the greatest pottery-producing country in the world, one often finds in a case labeled "Oriental Porcelain" a small collection of miscellaneous pieces, with highly decorated specimens made for the foreign market predominating, and these not unusually mingled with the fictile products of China. In France, for example, one may find in her great museums extensive collections of English pottery from Chelsea, Leeds, Staffordshire, Burslam, and other pottery centres, including, of course, representations of all the great potters such as Astbury, Elers, and Wedgwood, as well as the work of the minor potters. Turning from these cases to the Japanese section, if by good fortune the museum possesses one, the contrast is striking. Such an absence of due proportion would be paralleled by a general zoological museum displaying, for example, a complete collection of European and North American insects, and for South America possessing a few bright butterflies and the elytra of metallic-lustred beetles mounted as jewelry.
