Still in publisher's shrinkwrap. OVERSIZE! No priority/international, except by arrangement. Richly illustrated with colour plates.

This book documents one of the most important and widely exhibited of these holdings: the collection of Sara Lee Corporation, fifty-two works selected from the personal collection of Sara Lee's founder Nathan Cummings. With major masterpieces ranging from an 1872 painting by Claude Monet to a 1964 bronze by Henry Moore, the Sara Lee Collection was assembled in 1980, five years before Cummings's death. In 1998 the corporation announced an unprecedented gift of the entire collection to a group of forty art museums, twenty-five in the United States and fifteen in international cities in which Sara Lee Corporation has a major presence. This Millennium Gift is the largest single gift to the arts in American history and the first to include institutions outside the United States. This book discusses the Nathan Cummings Collection, the Sara Lee Collection and the Millennium Gift. It also includes an essay on each of the fifty-two works that places the work in the context of the artist's oeuvre proposes new interpretations and discusses the position of the art in the collections of the recipient museums throughout the world. The book also provides more than 200 comparative photographs." - Publisher. Size: 4to.
