The official companion book to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum's hundredth anniversary celebration During her lifetime (1840-1924) Isabella Stewart Gardner was at the heart of Victorian Boston's liveliest salon. Henry and William James, Henry Adams, Oliver Wendell Holmes, John LaFarge, James McNeill Whistler, Bernard Berenson, and John Singer Sargent all gathered at Fenway Court, in the company of works by Giotto, Fra Angelico, Titian, Raphael, Rubens, and Rembrandt. One hundred years after its completion, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum remains as intrepid and idiosyncratic as its creator. The embodiment of one woman's vision, the Venetian palazzo turned inside out and its wildly eclectic collection of twenty-four centuries of paintings, sculpture, furnishings, and books nonetheless speak very personally to all who enter. At once grand and intimate, the garden courtyard and the terrazzo galleries invite discovery: every visitor (and there have been literally hundreds of thousands), it seems, has a secret corner of the Gardner. In celebration of its centenary, the Gardner Museum has asked artists and thinkers of our own time to go public with their private visions of the Gardner. In this book, filled with 120 color plates, their voices are joined and juxtaposed with those of Mrs. Gardner's contemporaries, allowing readers to see the Gardner's most beloved works through the eyes of such nineteenth- and twentieth-century thinkers as William James and Bill T. Jones, T. S. Eliot and Henry Louis Gates Jr., Julia Ward Howe and Sister Wendy. Robert Campbell takes as his subject the museum's architecture, while Wayne Koestenbaum offers a homoerotic reading of works in the collection. Beautifully designed and extravagantly illustrated, Eye of the Beholder offers a richly textured exploration of one of the world's great art collections.…

The exterior shows minor edge wear, scuffs and scratches on the front cover, spine and back cover. Interior with minor signs of wear.; The delicacy, purity, and exotic beauty of Chinese and Japanese porcelain captivated all of Europe, where it was imported in large quantities during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Porcelain's allure inspired quests to unlock the secrets of its manufacture. European potters strove to imitate and adapt these Asian imports. This impact on European ceramics is superbly illustrated by the collection donated to the Asian Civilisations Museum by Mr and Mrs Toshio Egawa. The collection formed by the Egawas, a Japanese couple with long ties to Singapore, highlights the confluence of East and West. The individual objects, of fascinating design, represent a slice of history and reveal the economic and artistic interactions of the period.…
