Title: Visions of grace
Description: Visions of Grace: 100 Masterpieces from the Collection of Daniel and Marian Malcolm presents highlights from the celebrated collection of African art assembled by Drs. Daniel and Marian Malcolm. Built over more than four decades, it is one of the finest private collections of pre-colonial African Art and as such serves as a model and a source of inspiration for new and seasoned collectors alike. Through his selection of 100 works, author Heinrich Schweizer concentrates on the diversity and depth of the collection, providing historical, sociological and religious context for a variety of African cultures, while exploring the wellspring of the collectors' love for African Art. Striking a balance between oft-published and lesser known masterpieces from the collection, the present volume unveils a number of key works to the public for the first time in lush colourplates.
