Description

Available in English for the first time, Julius von Schlosser's seminal work in the history of art and collecting was the first study to interpret sixteenth- and seventeenth-century cabinets of wonder as precursors to the modern museum, situating them within a history of collecting going back to Greco-Roman antiquity.
