This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Noteworthy Paintings in American Private Collections We are not all conscious of the amount and curious values of what is being gathered here, and many would be surprised at the variety of interests repre sented in the personal ownerships of works of art collected in our Western World. Some exhibitions and some notices are making us aware of this mass of treasure. Of course we can see how the necessities of a more easy or more lux urions and even a more Splendid manner of living are filling our houses with works of art, as representing these imagined necessities. But we are less ac quainted with the manner in which this bringing together of works of art has often a character which is separate from that of splendor or appearance, and is solely influenced by the choice of good taste or the special wishes of the owners. Therein the character of many of these gatherings have peculiar shapes varying through many forms and assuming very opposite directions. It might be im portant and it certainly would be very interesting to note the forms of these col lections or gatherings at the moment of their first taking shape. Later the pos sible changes of manner of life, the displacements of fortune, or of inheritance are likely to alter these conditions and to make these collections lose their personal character, to destroy the record of first origins and to mass all together in a more commonplace appearance.

Download or read book Going Dutch written by Joyce Diane Goodfriend and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume investigates the place of Dutch history and Dutch-derived culture in America over the last four centuries. It considers how the Dutch have fared in America, and it explores how American conceptions of Dutchness have developed, from Henry Hudson's historic voyage to Manhattan in 1609 through the rise of Dutch design at the turn of the twenty-first century. Essays probe a rich array of topics: Dutch themes in American arts and letters; the place of Dutch paintings in American collections; shifting American interests in Dutch art, literature, and architecture; the experience of Dutch immigrants in America; and the Dutch Reformed Church in America. "Going Dutch" presents a much needed overview of the Dutch-American experience from its beginnings to the present. Contributors include: Julie Berger Hochstrasser, Willem Frijhoff, Joyce D. Goodfriend, Hans Krabbendam, Joseph Manca, Nancy T. Minty, Mark A. Peterson, Christopher Pierce, Judith Richardson, Louisa Wood Ruby, Benjamin Schmidt, Robert Schoone-Jongen, Annette Stott, Tity de Vries, and Dennis P. Weller.

Download or read book Enchanted Lives Enchanted Objects written by Dianne Sachko Macleod and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This insightful and beautifully illustrated book offers the first feminist analysis of the phenomenon of women art collectors in America. Dianne Sachko Macleod brings a surprising paradox to light, showing that collecting, which provided wealthy women with a private sense of solace, also liberated them to venture into the public sphere and make a lasting contribution to the emerging American culture. Beginning in the antebellum period, continuing through the Gilded Age, and reaching well into the twentieth century, Macleod shows how elite women enlisted the objets d'art and avant-garde paintings in their collections in causes ranging from the founding of modern museums to the campaign for women's suffrage.
