New York Art Museums

By SCALA

In the first few decades of the 20th century in particular, millionaires like the Hearsts, the Gettys, the Rockefellers and the Guggenheims sought to outdo each other, collecting an apparently unlimited number of works of art, especially those from the 19th and 20th centuries.
These collections formed the basis of sereral of the museums featured in this volume: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, MOMA - The Museum of Modern Art, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, the Whitney Museum of American Art, The Frick Collection, The Morgan Library & Museum, the Neue Galerie, Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum, The Jewish Museum and Museum Mile.
