The culmination of Henry Francis du Pont's lifelong vision and passion for collecting. Winterthur Museum houses the premier collection dedicated to American decorative arts. This book presents an incomparable selection of masterpieces chosen according the very principles espoused by du Pont himself: rarity, beauty, historical association, and provenance" The Winterthur website notes- Almost 60 years ago. Collector and horticulturist Henry Francis du Pont(1880–1969) opened his childhood home, Winterthur, to the public. Today, ... moreWinterthur is the premier museum of American decorative arts, with an unparalleled collection of nearly 90,000 objects made or used in America between about 1640 and 1860. The collection is displayed in the magnificent 175-room house, much as it was when the du Pont family lived here, as well as in permanent and changing exhibition galleries. Winterthur is set amidst a 1,000-acre preserve of rolling meadows and woodlands. Designed by du Pont, its 60-acre naturalistic garden is among America’s best, with magnificent specimen plantings and massed displays of color. Graduate programs and a preeminent research library make Winterthur an important center for the study of American art and culture. In his later years, du Pont wrote: I sincerely hope that the Museum will be a continuing source of inspiration and education for all time, and that the gardens and grounds will of themselves be a country place museum where visitors may enjoy as I have, not only the flowers, trees and shrubs, but also the sunlit meadows, shady wood paths, and the peace and great calm of a country place which has been loved and taken care of for three generations' DESCRIPTION: Hardcover. 9"x11.5&qu

I felt there was more than I really wanted to be responsible for in the collection, Mrs. Fine explained. When the couple began collecting, she said, they were redecorating a 19th-century farmhouse in a suburb of Baltimore, and ceramics were on her mind. The Fines visited dozens of antiques dealers between Virginia and Vermont, including Mary Allis, a major folk-art dealer in Fairfield, Conn. whom they were told had some pearlware worthy of investigating. We walked out that day with a cup and saucer and three folk-art paintings, Mrs. Fine said. The most important work in the sale is a Queen Anne tea table that Mr. Fine presented to his wife for her 50th birthday. I've never seen legs like that before, she said of the table that has trim ankles, pointed pad feet and shapely, slender legs. It looks alive- like it is about to walk across the room, a collector said this week. Joe Kindig 3d, an American furniture dealer, described Mr. Fine's pursu

Book: AMERICAN FOLK ART -BARSALONA COLLECTION & ANTIQUE AMERICANA -Sothebys sale
An Interesting Auction Catalog- Important Americana. Featuring the Collection of Frank and June Barsalona” The catalog to an auction held in New York by Sotheby's on September 30. 2010. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: The catalog notes- The Collection of Frank and June Barsalona marks a homecoming for many works of folk art purchased at major Americana auctions held at Sotheby’s in the 1970s and 80s. The Collection was formed under the passionate and discerning eye of Frank Barsalona. A talent agent and founder of the first booking agency to focus exclusively on rock groups, who organized the first American concerts for many British Invasion bands including The Rolling Stones and The Beatles. In 1979, Mr. Barsalona attended the landmark auction of Americana from the collection of Stewart E. Gregory at Sotheby Parke-Bernet. ... moreHe was immediately inspired by the skill and creativity evidenced in the homespun samplers, patchwork quilts, gracefully-carved formal furniture, painted chests and boxes. Mr. Barsalona went on to buy from other major sales, including the collections of Theodore Kapnek, Howard and Jean Lipman and Donald and Faye Walters, which were instrumental in defining this market. It is a testament to his vision as a collector that Mr. Barsalona is able to see important connections between Americana and other genres, such as the relationship between Abstract Expressionist painting and the work of early American artists, and often creates interesting juxtapositions in his own collection and home. In discussing the Barsalonas, Nancy Druckman, Senior Vice President and Head of Sotheby’s American Folk Art department, said: Their collection consists of such wonderful pieces, bought in early landmark sales that brought remarkable material into the market. These paintings and objects are the best of old friends–as are the Barsalonas. The sale of the Collection of Frank and June Barsalona will join the ranks of some really historic auctions in American folk art. The Barsalona Collec

Book: Antique American Folk Sculpture & Figures - Grand Study by Ricco & Maresca
American Primitive. Discoveries in Folk Sculpture” By Roger Ricco& Frank Maresca. Published in New York by Alfred A. Knopf in 1988. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: Until recently. American primitive sculpture was seen as a kind of folk art: objects whose design and purpose ere rooted in a community of tradition and related to the daily material and spiritual needs of ordinary people. But in recently years, collectors and historians have begun to place this body of art within the realm of fine and not folk art. Pictured here are scarecrows and lampstands, hat forms and face jugs, weather vanes and whirligigs, toys, decoys, and carnival figures, icons, architectural embellishments, three-dimensional portraits, and more. These are artists unconcerned with rules or with the success of their methods, or with the commercial ... morepossibilities of their creations. They neither intended nor hoped that their work would be acknowledged as art nor they as artists. This very innocence has produced daring solutions to practical problems and audacious artistic results.

An Interesting Catalog- American Fancy. Exuberance in the Arts 1790-1840” By Sumter Priddy. Published by the Chipstone Foundation and the Milwaukee Art Museum in 2004. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: Between 1790 and 1840. Millions of middle-class Americans throughout the nation encountered"Fancy" they rode in a Fancy sleigh, dressed up in Fancy clothes, blew their noses in Fancy handkerchiefs, bought goods at Fancy shops, ate at Fancy tables on Fancy dishes, and slept under Fancy coverlets. Not just fancy but Fancy: an early nineteenth-century cultural phenomenon born out of new and enlightened ways of seeing, understanding, and responding to the surrounding world. Fancy expressed itself in just about everything that pleased the senses; generally colorful and boldly patterned, it elicited delight, awe, surprise, ... morewhim, and caprice. Whether experienced in the form of painted surfaces, kaleidoscopic quilts, or imaginary landscapes, Fancy engaged the emotions and expanded the imagination, expressing the core of human fancy. American Fancy offers an appropriately fantastic experience of this uniquely American sensibility. Author Sumpter Priddy has assembled and produced an original oeuvre in the field of decorative arts, going beyond the traditional modes of furniture analysis, which concentrate on style, history, and construction, to consider the perceptual and emotional responses through which the original users and viewers would have interacted with these material things. To this end he employs the interpretive methods used in the fields of literature, fine arts, philosophy and even psychology. Rich, fully illustrated, wondrously researched, and bound in a cover that imitates a typical Fancy pattern, American Fancy does its marvelous subject true.

A 2010 Museum of Fine Arts exhibition note by Kelly Hays L'Ecuyer explains- For decades, Daphne Farago has collected art with natural curiosity, intellect and passion. Born in South Africa to a family she described as‘more interested in politics than art, she was nonetheless aware of and attracted to the African art that ... morewas all around her. She spent her young adult years in Europe, aiding refugees in the aftermath of World War II and eventually moved with her husband, Peter, to Providence, Rhode Island, where they raised a family. Drawn to things that were handmade and that revealed the individuality of the maker, she assembled a major collection of American folk art, including painted furniture, decorated stoneware, weather vanes, quilts, needlework and sculpture. Mrs Farago’s early exposure to African objects and interest in contemporary art guided her eye. She preferred three-dimensional objects to paintings or works on paper and she translated her appreciation for African art to collecting early American objects with a‘one-of-a-kind, somewhat primitive air to them. Mrs Farago sold her folk art collection in 1991 to benefit the Museum of Art at the Rhode Island School of Design, where the Daphne Farago Wing for contemporary art was built in 1993" DESCRIPTION and CONDITION NOTES: Softcover. 8.5”x10” 96 pages, color and black& white illustrations.

Antique American Folk Art & Carved Figures- Kahn Collection 2002
An Interesting Auction Catalog- The Kahn Collection. Part One” The catalog to an auction held in Manchester(NH) by Northeast Auctions on August 3. 2002. description continues below the picture- DISCUSSION: A July 26. 2002 article in the New York Times reported- The Kahn collection includes 19th- and early 20th-century wooden sculptures, furniture(Windsor chairs and painted blanket chests) paintings, whirligigs, weather vanes, decoys, toys, stoneware, store signs and cigar store Indians. The Kahns are an institution. They have supported the American Folk Art Museum in Manhattan for decades, frequently lending to shows there as well as to shows at the Brooklyn Museum, the New-York Historical Society and the Newark Museum. Their collection was shown at the United States Pavilion of the Japanese Exposition in Osaka, Japan, in 1970 and in'The ... moreFlowering of American Folk Art, a seminal show at the Whitney Museum in 1976. Mr. Kahn brought a fresh perspective to folk art. By profession, he has represented artists, graphic artists and photographers since 1947. He also organized a large private folk art collection for David Teiger, a New Jersey management consultant. I think primarily in terms of form, Mr. Kahn said. Whimsy, color, surface and texture are part of it. Provenance is a plus, but a piece has to talk to me. I have to feel that it's true folk art, not something that has been studied and labored over. Snaring the Kahn sale was a coup for Northeast Auctions, which beat out Sotheby's, Christie's and Skinner for it.
