First 4to, stiff pictorial wrappers. 290 pp, 189 illustrations (32 in color), bibliography. Although Hammer's appreciation of Daumier (with whom he identified, we are told, because of the artist's deep compassion for the human condition) was apparently genuine, his acquisition of the collection (or at least the bulk of it which came from George Longstreet) was done in a typically underhanded manner. As a trustee of the L.A. County Museum of Art, he convinced the board to let him buy the collection, consisting of more than 6,000 prints, drawings, paintings and sculpture, from Longstreet for a quarter of a million, with the (verbal) assurance that he would subsequently donate it to the museum. (Longstreet had offered to sell it directly to the museum for that amount.) Assuming that the offer of donation was not an outright lie (a dangerous assumption, considering its source), it was clearly intended as a tax dodge. But Hammer soon decided decided to keep the works in his own foundation, most assuredly reaping the same tax benefits. Very good, lacking insert (2nd ed.).
