Abstract: "The Grosvenor Gallery was located at a fashionable upper-class address: 135-137 New Bond Street, London. After giving final orders to dressmakers and tailors on New Bond Street, its visitors were free to enter the cool interior of this temple of contemplation and suspend ordinary time. This book is richly illustrated with many examples of the art the audience would have seen on such an occasion."
