Description: "This illustrated catalogue presents the first survey of the artworks in the Bloch Collection. Richard R. Brettell and Joachim Pissarro - distinguished scholars in the field of Impressionism - explore the history and significance of each work in detail. In accompanying essays, Ian Kennedy examines the evolving history of the collection, and Richard R. Brettell places it with a broader narrative of "domestic" collecting. New documentary information on the provenance and exhibition history of the Bloch works is included."--BOOK JACKET.
