Paperback. Condition: Fine. 6th. ix, 309 pages, illustrations (chiefly colour); 24 cm. Tight, clean copy. *** "The rapid growth of the collections made possible by J. Paul Getty's bequest in 1976 could not have been imagined when the Getty Museum opened in 1954, or even when the Villa building opened in Malibu in 1974. Since the early 1980s hundreds of important new works of art have been acquired in the areas of the Museum's three traditional interests, antiquities, French furniture and decorative arts, and European paintings, and thousands more have been acquired to form four new collections - drawings, illuminated manuscripts, European sculpture, and photographs." - Publisher.

Julia Margaret Cameron: Photographs from the J. Paul Getty Museum
Language: English
Published by J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles, 1996
ISBN 10: 0892363746 ISBN 13: 9780892363742
Paperback. Condition: Fine. 143 pages, illustrations; 20 cm. Tight, clean copy. *** "Known as the 'greatest pictorialist of her day,' Julia Margaret Cameron (1815-1879) came to photography late in life, bringing years of literary and artistic experience to what was still a relatively new medium. She believed the camera was a tool of expression and revolved to reconcile traditional art content with modern forms of expression. The first volume in the In Focus series to examine the work of a nineteenth-century photographer, this beautiful volume examines Cameron's passion for the 'divine art' and her 'deeply seated love of the beautiful' that are clearly revealed by her compelling pictures. The J. Paul Getty Museum's collection of Cameron photographs consists of 298 prints. Approximately fifty of them are presented here. The plates are accompanied by commentaries written by Julian Cox, assistant curator of photographs. Along with Judy Dater, David Featherstone, Joanne Lukitsch, Weston Naef, Pamela Roberts, and Robert Woof, he participated in a colloquium on Cameron, an edited transcript of which is included here along with a chronology of Cameron's life." - Publisher.

The J. Paul Getty Museum Handbook of the Antiquities Collection
Language: English
Published by J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles, 2002
ISBN 10: 0892366648 ISBN 13: 9780892366644
First Edition
Paperback. Condition: Fine. 1st. xxiii, 237 pages, colour illustrations; 24 cm. Tight, clean copy. Stated First Edition. Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "J. Paul Getty bought his first classical antiquity -- a small terracotta sculpture -- at auction in London in 1939. Over the next four decades, he became a passionate collector, and in the 1950s he created a trust for 'the diffusion of artistic and general knowledge.' Building on that early foundation, successive antiquities curators at the Getty Museum have amassed a collection that now contains more than fifty thousand ancient objects. In lively prose accompanied by a full-color photograph of each object, this handbook of the antiquities collection presents nearly two hundred of the Getty Museum's most important pieces. Spanning thousands of years as far back as the third millennium B.C. through the third century A.D.--the Getty antiquities collection encompasses Cycladic, Greek, Etruscan, South Italian, Roman, and Romano-Egyptian cultures. It includes one of the finest assemblages of ancient Greek vases in the United States; monumental marble sculptures and diminutive bronzes; Greek and Roman gems; and Hellenistic silverware, jewelry, and glass. / Deborah Gribbon is museum director. Marion True is antiquities curator." - Publisher. Size: 8vo. Guidebook.
