This exhibition catalogue addresses Hoentschel's biography, business contacts, and contacts, as well as the arrival of his collection in New York, its lavish 4-volume ilustrated catalogue and the medieval collections. Hoentschel, the celebrated Parisian decorater/designer, sold his collection of more than 2,000 decorative arts objects to John Pierpont Morgan who was, at the time, the President of The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Morgan immediately donated the works to the museum and loaned the medieval collection, later donated to the museum by his son. This collection formed the basis of the Department for Decorative Arts at the Met, the first of its kind in a US institution.

Georges Hoentschel (1855–1915) was a leading French interior designer in historic styles, head of a decorating firm, and ceramicist during the Belle Epoque. He found inspiration for his designs in medieval and 18th-century French art, which he avidly collected, amassing more than 4,000 pieces of furniture, woodwork, metalwork, sculpture, paintings, and textiles.

He found inspiration for his designs in medieval and 18th-century French art, which he avidly collected, amassing more than 4,000 pieces of furniture, woodwork, metalwork, sculpture, paintings, and textiles. After visiting Hoentschel in Paris, the American financier J. Pierpont Morgan acquired the collection and bequeathed it to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1906 and 1916–17. These works greatly enriched the museum´s medieval art department and became the nucleus of its decorative arts department, profoundly influencing American tastes in the early 20th century. Through texts, early documentary photographs, and images of newly conserved works, Salvaging the Past goes behind the scenes to explore the history and influence of this remarkable collection.Taal: Engels;Afmetingen: 30x292x229 mm;Gewicht: 2,02 kg;Verschijningsdatum: april 2013;Druk: 1;ISBN10: 0300190247;ISBN13: 9780300190243; Engelstalig | Hardcover | 2013.
