First published in 2000, this is an examination of the collection
of art works through an anthropological study of modes of exchange
and the social roles of material culture. Focusing on the figure of
Sebastiano Resta, Genevieve Warwick brings to light a shadowy, yet
crucial chapter in the history of collecting, that of the great
migration of art objects out of Italy to northern Europe in the
early eighteenth century. Her study pins the history of collecting
to broader changes in European economic history and analyzes the
epistemological frameworks for viewing that accompanied this
transfer of artistic wealth. Warwick also demonstrates how early
modern art collecting was shaped by the social mores of elite 'arts
of love'.
