The auction of the collection of an important American artist-

THE ARTHUR B. DAVIES ART COLLECTION.
New York; American Art Association: April 16-17th, 1929.

The art collection of this important artist and designer. Although Davies' 
own works have slipped in popularity in the decades since his death, his 
importance to the development of American modern art cannot be understated. 
A member of The Eight, his legacy includes both the Armory Show and the 
Museum of Modern Art. His personal art collection was eclectic- ranging 
from modern drawings, paintings, prints and sculptures to ancient pottery, 
bronzes, and rare fabrics, and French furniture and tapestries. Softcover; 
6.5"x9.5", 101+ pages, 450 lots, b/w illustrations; some wear and soil; top 
of spine chipped. [04114] $100.00
