This Guide to the Collections is the first comprehensive guide to all of the collections and venues of the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art. Paperback.

In American museums today, whole collections can be hidden in plain view. Such has been the case with the Gavet-Vanderbilt-Ringling collection from the Middle Ages and Renaissance.

This exhibition reunites this family of objects, not only in the Ringling Museum's special exhibition galleries, but also in their first American home, the Gothic Room of Marble House at Newport, Rhode Island. The catalog and exhibition extend our understanding of the collection even further to the Gothic-style Parisian apartment of Emile Gavet, where these magnificent objects were first assembled in the waning decades of the nineteenth century.
