The Guide

Résumé du livre

The Guide is a lively introduction to the collections of New Zealand's leading art museum, Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tamaki. Established in 1888, the Gallery has developed its outstanding collections through the generosity of many benefactors and the continuing support of Auckland City. The Guide is an invitation to discover 160 outstanding works of art ranging in date from 1376 to 1999, including several of the Gallery's superb British paintings, highlights of the European painting and sculpture collections and representative examples of old master prints. New Zealand art of all periods and media, with a particular emphasis on the last fifty years, is at the heart of The Guide, which includes many works by Maori and Pacific Island artists.
