"
This monumental, two-volume publication is the first fully documented catalogue of the Institute's collection of European paintings. The quality of this collection reflects the founder's philosophy in its inclusion of masterpieces as diverse as
William-Adolphe Bouguereau's
Nymphs and Satyr (1873) and
Pierre-Auguste Renoir's
A Box at the Theater (1880); works by academic painters such as
Jean-Léon Gérôme; Barbizon painters such as
Camille Corot and
Jean-François Millet; and the Impressionists
Camille Pissarro and
Edgar Degas.
Published on the 100th anniversary of Sterling Clark's first purchase of a European painting, these handsome volumes document each of the 374 paintings in the collection, with essays by prominent scholars, detailed bibliographic and art historical apparatus, technical notes, and over 450 color illustrations.
