Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. A fascinating biography of the philanthropist Albert Barnes, whose pioneering collection of modern art was meant to transform America?s soulFrom prominent critic and biographer Blake Gopnik comes a compelling new art collector biography of America?s first great collector of modern art, Albert Coombs Barnes. Raised in a Philadelphia slum shortly after the Civil War, Barnes rose to earn a medical degree and then made a fortune from a pioneering antiseptic treatment for newborns. Never losing sight of the working-class neighbors of his youth, Barnes became a ruthless advocate for their rights and needs. His vast art collection?181 Renoirs, 69 Cézannes, 59 Matisses, 46 Picassos?was dedicated to enriching their cultural lives.
