Selected bibliography. Index. Bound in the original cream-colored cloth. From the Dust Jacket: "Traveling in imagination from Tivoli in 1800 across the Atlantic and back to Italy to Bernard Berenson's villa, I Tatti, Remy Saisselin takes us on a historical odyssey through nineteenth-century art. This is not art criticism or art history, but rather a study of the psychological forces that transformed art from an aesthetic experience representative of church and state to a consumer commodity, symbolic of the bourgeois's new God -- money. Art collecting became an art itself. This new obsession for prestigious collectibles, or bibelots, was aptly coined bricabracomania." . First Edition. Hardcover. Fine condition/Near Fine dust jacket. 8vo. xvii, 189pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping. Seller Inventory # 001509
