Product Description

A beautiful book that reveals the world of art collecting from home, featuring exquisite examples of Hollingsworth and Morris family furniture. Start with House, Finish with a Collection is the story of how a couple's use of American art and antiques evolved from furnishing a house into a full-blown passion for collecting. Featuring exquisite examples of Hollingsworth and Morris family furniture, Weber boxes, Pennsylvania clocks and Kirk-Stieff silver, as well as American paintings by the Peale family, Edward Hicks, Edward Redfield and Horace Pippin, this museum-calibre collection reveals a pride in the early American sensibility. The combination of text and extraordinary photographs traces this remarkable journey and demonstrates that life can be more than comfortable living among these collections. The compendium catalogues the diversified and important collection, making this a valuable scholarly reference as well as a reading pleasure.

A beautiful book with wonderful photography about a great personal collection of American antiques written by the collector. A record of passionate collectors with the means to beautifully decorate their much loved home with fine traditional American antiques. The book is unique in its focus on the life style of the decorating aspect of collecting classic American antiques, both inside the home and the exterior landscape. I enjoyed the opportunity to view many of the rooms seasonally decorated over a variety of holidays. Recommend for anyone interested in fine American antiques.
