Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Catalogue of Mr. George I. Seney's Important Collection of Modern Paintings: To Be Sold by Auction, Absolutely Without Reserve on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, February 11th, 12th and 13th Each production the impression of that by which he made his debut. The name Caliga, which he adopted, is a Latinization of his family name of Stiefel, and by it he has Since acquired a reputation that has made this brush-name a veritable trade-mark. His pictures are essentially representative of the modern and realistic tendency of Munich art, which, while it still continues to produce subjects with an individual interest and meaning, seeks in their realization to present them in a natural aspect. Thus there is grafted upon actualities, the figures and facts of life, a poetic and creative sentiment presented by executive methods in sympathy with the spirit of the work. Mr. Caliga returned to America some years since, and is now a regular and favorite contributor to our exhibitions.

This volume explores the crucial role of art dealers in creating a transatlantic art market in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. “There was money in the air, ever so much money,” wrote Henry James in 1907, reflecting on the American appetite for art acquisitions. Indeed, collectors such as Henry Clay Frick and Andrew W. Mellon are credited with bringing noteworthy European art to the United States, with their collections forming the backbone of major American museums today. But what of the dealers, who possessed the expertise in art and recognized the potential of developing a new market model on both sides of the Atlantic? Money in the Air investigates the often-overlooked role of these dealers in creating an international art world. Contributors examine the histories of wellknown international firms like Duveen Brothers, M. Knoedler & Co., and Goupil & Cie and their relationships with American clients, as well as accounts of other remarkable dealers active in the transatlantic art market. Drawing on dealer archives, scholars reveal compelling findings, including previously unknown partnerships and systems of cooperation. This volume offers new perspectives on the development of art collections that formed the core of American art museums, such as the National Gallery of Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Frick Collection.
