Full Description


The new Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University opened in 1927 as an architectural and academic experiment: it was the first structure in North America designed for the specialised training of art scholars and museum professionals. This illustrated book - a history of the formative years of the Fogg Art Museum - discusses the educational and cultural philosophies behind its conception, the historical, social and economic circumstances, its teaching activities, its art collections, and its research, library and technical resources.
