The Bowdoin College Museum of Art features nearly 24,000 works spanning antiquity to today, housed on Bowdoin's campus in coastal Maine. Since it began collecting in 1811, the museum has served as a unique resource for students, scholars, and visitors from around the world. This splendid book takes readers on a trip through art history--and through the liberal arts, which serve as the college's grounding philosophy--using key objects from Bowdoin's diverse collection. With insightful essays that illuminate art in the context of current, interdisciplinary liberal arts questions, this volume is an art lover's treasure that will spark readers' curiosity and help nurture their intellectual lives.

Terms of sale
We're an exclusively online bookstore.
Email is the best way to reach us: nilbogbooks@gmail.com We'll respond to your email inquiry within 24 hours.
Most of our books are in storage, and will have to be retrieved before they can be shipped (or described/photographed if additional details are requested). While this may occasionally slow down responses, it also means these books aren't as manhandled as they might be in a physical store.
We carry mostly modern firsts, photography, art books, children's books, and cook books.
Unless stated otherwise, our books are not library copies, book club editions or price-clipped. However, feel free to email about specific titles if you just want to be sure.
Shipping terms
Orders will usually ship within 2 business days. Our prices are based around books the size of a novel, so they may need to be increased for larger books. We don't make any money on postage, but we can't afford to subsidize it, either.
