Description

Trace the fascinating journey of a disputed Gauguin still life through the art world's most exclusive circles. This compelling narrative follows Flowers and Fruit as it travels between Paris and New York, examined by experts and connoisseurs who hailed it as an authentic post-Impressionist masterpiece. The book weaves together the stories of a Gold Rush heiress, a Parisian schoolmaster, a celebrated French actor, and a California museum to explore how authenticity is determined in the modern art market. Set during the pivotal decade when museums first began collecting modern art, this work examines the intersection of expertise, provenance, and commerce that shaped how we value and authenticate significant artworks.

Key Features

Rowman & Littlefield Publishers presents a detailed historical account of a disputed Gauguin painting's journey through the twentieth-century art market.

The narrative follows multiple characters connected to Flowers and Fruit, including a Gold Rush heiress and a celebrated French actor, each playing a role in the painting's contested provenance.

Explores how museums began collecting modern art and the standards they used to authenticate works by post-Impressionist masters like Paul Gauguin.

Examines the tension between expert opinion and market forces in determining the authenticity and value of significant artworks during a transformative period in art history.
