Art collecting in the early United States was viewed as a meaningful enterprise in a new, enlightened democracy. This book presents a varied landscape of collecting American art that attests to the cultural shifts and changing narratives of an expanding nation. The volume focuses on the private motivations and shared beliefs that drove American patrons to assemble holdings of American art from the late eighteenth century through the early twentieth.
