A beautiful vintage volume from the Museums Discovered series, dedicated to The Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C.
Founded by Duncan Phillips, The Phillips Collection became one of America’s most important collections of modern art, with a particular strength in European and American painting. This beautifully illustrated volume offers an intimate look at the museum and its collection through reproductions, essays, and detailed artwork descriptions.
Published in 1981, this is a wonderful piece for collectors of vintage art books, museum ephemera, and modern art—or simply for displaying on a coffee table or bookshelf.
