Hardback. H.David Sox, HarperCollins Publishers. This is the story of how Edward Perry Warren cornered the world art market from the early years of this century onwards. His competitor at the British Museum declared in despair "there is nothing to be got nowadays, since Warren is always on the spot first". Warren almost single-handedly established the collections of the Boston Museum and the Metropolitan Museum in New York. Apart from some of the finest Greek and Roman pieces in existence, Warren owned Rodin's "The Kiss". As well as art, Warren collected young men, establishing in Lewes a brotherhood devoted to the revival of classical ideals. This world was to impinge on the worlds of Oscar Wilde, Augustus John, Matisse, Gertrude Stein, and the wealthy benefactress, Isabella Stewart Gardner, amongst others. More shocking than his recreation of a society based on "Greek love" is Warren's blatant dealings with some of the most contrived art forgeries of the century. Hardback.

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
