Description

This book deals with the detailed biography of twelve tribal art collectors in Britain. Catalogues, registers and memories are used to provide accurate accounts of the acquisition, accumulation and competitive provision of ethnographic art over two hundred years. None of these people were collectors in the field. All were deeply aware of the value of the objects they have achieved: this aspect of collective management process is outlined in the book. Prices and source names are included.
