| Synopsis: |
The Pierpont Morgan Library is both a museum of fine art and a research centre, and is recognised as housing a world class collection of priceless works. This publication gives an inside view of its holdings, with informative essays on the collection's 15th-century books, Middle Age and Renaissance manuscripts, and drawings by the masters. The Library's unique collection - of musical scores, letters and manuscripts that date from 1500 to the present century - it also contained in this guide to the library. The works of artists, writers, musicians and scientists are all represented in this volume, and include amongst others, Rembrandt, Goya, Blake, Rubens, Tiepolo, Watteau, Bach, Mozart, Debussy, Poe, Jefferson, Austen, Rousseau, Byron and Einstein. |
