Description
This study charts the art market and museums of early 20th century Europe through the legacy of one influential dealer. Hugh Lane established himself in London in the 1890s, selling paintings by Holbein, Titian, and Velázquez to build his own collection.
As a dealer, Lane played a significant role in shaping modern art collections, including those at the Johannesburg Art Gallery, Cape Town, and the National Gallery in London. He also donated artworks to museums in Ireland, where he was named director in 1914.
This book explores the interrelationship of event and place through each city in Lane's practice as a dealer, offering a unique insight into the art market and museums of the time.
