| More than a practical guide, this text is a tour not only of America's great museums, but also of the history of art in America. The work leads the reader from the august halls of the Metropolitan Museum of Art to the intimate galleries of the Farnsworth Art Museum in Rockland, from the gardens of the Huntington in San Marino to the Hispanic Heritage Wing of the International Museum of Folk Art in Santa Fe. It gives a tour of the physical spaces and the museums' most beloved or notworthy works, and an overview of how both the collections and the buildings came to be - histories of personal taste, serendipity, civic pride and astute management. |
