More about the book

The narrative delves into the creation of a renowned art foundation housing an unparalleled collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces, including works by Cézanne, Matisse, and Picasso. It chronicles the legal challenges that nearly led to its downfall and the controversial decisions made regarding its management, which some argue contradict the founder Dr. Albert C. Barnes's intentions. The updated edition features a new epilogue discussing the ongoing struggles surrounding this significant cultural institution.
