Collections and Collectors

I came across a lovely little photo essay in the NY Times Magazine about some long time antique collectors in NYC. The couple collects a wide variety of things including majolica.

There are some very nice pictures of their collections and reminiscences about collecting in the post war US.

If you get a chance, you should stop by the Times Magazine Web site and take a look.
You can find the article here.

A blog such as this cannot exist without the assistance of others. It depends on the good will of dealers and collectors alike to advance the appreciation of majolica. Anyone whose images are posted here, copyrighted or not, who want their images removed may have them immediately removed at their request.
