Inside the charming home of one of the world's great private collections of impressionism

The Museum Langmatt in Baden, Switzerland, is a gem in every respect. The house and garden take visitors back to the turn of the 20th century, when Jenny and Sidney W. Brown set up house there. As collectors, the couple was well informed and well connected, and they assembled noteworthy, mainly impressionist works of art, chiefly on their trips to Paris. The Browns acquired paintings by Renoir, Monet, Gauguin, Cézanne and Degas--numerous small works that were displayed in the rooms. The Museum Langmatt, which opened in 1990, is founded upon this unique core collection. The Browns' living area became an influential exhibition space for contemporary art. This carefully designed illustrated volume has been compiled to celebrate the museum's 30th anniversary. It provides a look at the magical art collection, its special history, and a glimpse behind the scenes, as well.
