520 1 $a"Recently named one of the world's top 200 collectors by ARTnews, Scott M. Black has carefully developed over the past two decades a distinguished collection of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, and Modernist works. The collection ranges from sculptures by Rodin, Maillol, and Moore to paintings by Monet, Renoir, Cezanne, Leger, Picasso, Braque, Vuillard, Signac, de Chirico, Miro, and Magritte and works on paper by Chagall, Pissarro, and Degas. But more than simply an ensemble of remarkable artworks, the Black Collection - published here in full for the first time - bespeaks a personal engagement with each object, infusing this gathering with a spirit of adventure, delight, and, in a word, romance. The Romance of Modernism showcases these treasures, with historical commentary by George T. M. Shackelford, author of Gauguin Tahiti. Taken together, these objects present a compelling, instructive, and disarmingly personal panorama of the Modernist century, the period from 1870 to 1970 when art revolutionized our way of seeing."--BOOK JACKET.
