Dreams and Echoes

Over the past 30 years, David and Celia Hilliard have amassed a remarkable collection of Old Master, 19th-century, and modern drawings, as well as of French sculpture from the 19th century, including significant drawings and sculptures by Claude Vignon, George Romney, Edgar Degas, Odilon Redon, James Ensor, Jan Toorop, Pablo Picasso, Jean-Jacques Feuchere, August Rodin and Jean Carries, among many others. "Dreams and Echoes" features 90 of the most extraordinary pieces from this collection, with a special focus on 18th- and 19th-century British drawings and French drawings and sculptures of the 19th century. Each work is accompanied by a physical description, provenance, bibliography, and exhibition history, along with discussion of the work's attribution, subject and function. An international team of scholars and experts offers insight into the artworks, resulting in an illuminating book about a collection of exceptional quality.
