Providing an exclusive glimpse into one of the finest private art collections in the world
this book presents the extraordinary collection of the Neue Galerie's co-founder Ronald S.
Lauder To celebrate the Neue Galerie's twentieth-anniversary year an exhibition will be
presented of selections from the collection of its co-founder. The accompanying publication
continues with the theme of the tenth anniversary exhibition. Whereas the earlier show and book
focused on pieces from the third century BC to the twentieth century AD from Austria France
and Germany this exhibition and publication will represent various centuries and media
highlighting Greek and Roman works and Italian thirteenth- and fourteenth-century gold-ground
paintings. Essays by distinguished art historians and curators will reflect on the breadth of
these special fields providing a background for various works and their incorporation into
the collection of the Neue Galerie's co-founder. Published in association with the Neue Galerie
