The ten essays in A Market for Merchant Princes trace the progression of American collectors taste for Italian Renaissance masterpieces from the antebellum era, through the Gilded Age, to the later twentieth century.By focusing variously on issues of supply and demand, reliance on advisers, the role of travel, and the civic-mindedness of American collectors from the antebellum years through the postWorld War II era, the authors bring alive the passions of individual collectors while chronicling the development of their increasingly sophisticated sensibilities.
