Excerpt from The Metropolitan Museum of Art: Guide to the Loan Exhibition
I was very anxious to secure, and in the hope of being able to buy it, I obtained an invitation to visit the col lection, which I had never seen. But when I saw what treasures the man had, I said to myself, 'what is the use of bothering about one little piece when I might get them all?' So I asked him at once if he would take so much for his entire collection; he said he would, and I bought it then and there. Another important collection, this time one which he knew well, he bought as he was getting into his automobile to take the steamer for Europe. Just at that moment a dealer came along and told him the collection was for sale. Very well, said Mr. Mor gan, if you are authorized to negotiate for it, you may buy it for me, and with that, off he went.
