This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Collection of Engravings Bequeathed to Harvard College by Francis Calley Gray Frequent visits to Europe, begun early in life, developed in Mr. Gray a strong love of art, the result of which was the gradual and careful acquisition of a large and precious collection of engravings. His purchases were made with judgment and taste. His object was to secure the best representations in engraving of the best works of the great masters in art. He sought not merely to gratify his love of beauty, but also to satisfy his love of knowledge. In his engravings he studied the history of art in all periods, and in every country and they were regarded by him as a part of and complement to his admirable library. Thus many of the engravings in this collection are valuable as beautiful and accurate transcripts of paintings, while others were acquired on account of some peculiar merit of their own, irrespective of that of their subject, or because they were of essential importance in the history of art.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outstanding Academic Title, Choice, 2015 Winner, Ewell Newman Award of the American Historical Print Collectors Society, 2016 In 1849 the Smithsonian purchased the Marsh Collection of European engravings. Not only the first collection of any kind to be acquired by the new Institution, it was also the first public print collection in the nation, and it presented an important symbol of cultural authority. The prints formed part of the library of Vermont Congressman George Perkins Marsh (1801-1882), a member of the Smithsonian’s Board of Regents. The uncertainty of the Smithsonian's mission in the early years complicated its motivation for purchasing the collection, especially given Marsh’s position as a Regent in financial difficulty. After a serious fire in 1865, portions of the collection were deposited at the Library of Congress and the Corcoran Gallery of Art. Efforts to reclaim it began in the 1880s, as a new generation of Smithsonian staff expanded the National Museum, but they achieved only mixed success. Through the story of the Marsh Collection, the book explores the cultural values attributed to prints in the 19th century, including their prominent role in expositions and their influence on visual culture at a time when collecting styles were moving from an individual’s private contemplation of artworks to wider public venues of exposition in museums and reception by multiple audiences. The history of this first Smithsonian collection enlivens an important stage in the development of American cultural identity and in the formation of the Smithsonian as a national institution.
