Description

The new book from the "100 Great" Golden Collection is a kind of popular encyclopedia of world museum affairs. It tells of how the private collections of passionate collectors and patrons turned into great museum holdings, of how statesmen of Russia, Europe, America, and the countries of the East cared for the enlightenment of their fellow citizens and the preservation of cultural heritage for future generations, creating new galleries, repositories, and exhibition halls. It gathers material about museums old and comparatively young, world-famous and not yet celebrated but already worthy of public attention. Readers will journey to the Uffizi and Pitti galleries, the Tate, the Vatican and the Louvre, the Doge's Palace and the Prado, the Kunstkammer and the Diamond Fund of Russia, Wawel Castle and the Munich Pinakothek, to the museums of the Near and Middle East, Africa, and China...
