Descripción

"The Reader's Digest Collection was begun in the early 1940s by Lila Acheson Wallace who co-founded Reader's Digest with her husband, DeWitt Wallace in 1922. Committed to creating a more visually pleasing and intellectually stimulating work environment, Mrs. Wallace acquired the holdings of French Impressionist and Early Modernist work to form one of the first corporate collections in the world. The original collection of Impressionist and early Modernist works today totals more than 8,000 objects, including paintings, prints, drawings, photographs and mixed media works. A variety of historical styles are represented in the Collection, as are a diversity of late-twentieth-century movements, ranging from French Impressionism and early Modernism to Pop Art and Minimalism." This book has 171 pages and is profusely illustrated.
