The art of acquiring

For over four decades, Etta and Claribel Cone meticulously built one of the world's most significant private art collections, roaming European studios and galleries. These independently wealthy Jewish sisters from Baltimore eventually bequeathed their modern art holdings to the Baltimore Museum of Art, a collection valued at nearly $1 billion. This book finally illuminates the remarkable achievements of the little-known Cone sisters, whose story has remained largely untold until now.
