Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. CALOUSTE GULBENKIAN COLLECTOR BY JOSE DE AZEREDO PERDIGAO LISBON 1979. I must candidly admit that I had no idea who Mr. Gulbenkian was but as usual, Wikipedia set me straight, to wit: "Calouste Gulbenkian (23 March 1869 20 July 1955) was a British businessman and philanthropist of Armenian origin. He played a major role in making the petroleum reserves of the Middle East available to Western development and is credited with being the first person to exploit Iraqi oil. Gulbenkian travelled extensively and lived in a number of cities including Constantinople, London, Paris, and Lisbon. Throughout his life, Gulbenkian was involved with many philanthropic activities including the establishment of schools, hospitals, and churches. The Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, a private foundation based in Portugal, was started at his bequest in 1956 and continues to promote arts, charity, education, and science throughout the world. It is now among the largest foundations in Europe. By the end of his life, he had become one of the world's wealthiest individuals and his art acquisitions one of the greatest private collections."
