Catálogo de las obras de arte en la colección del Ateneo Puertorriqueño

Description:

"1996 catalog of artworks in the collection of the Ateneo Puertorriqueño, an institution that since its creation in 1876 has been linked to the core of intellectual life and nationalist spirit in Puerto Rico. Divided into 10 chapters, the first is dedicated to the 18th and 19th centuries; four refer to painting, drawing, printmaking, stained glass, and sculpture in the 20th century; and the remaining five discuss other categories, such as portraiture of illustrious Puerto Ricans. Each work reproduced is appropriately annotated. Many of the works received awards in competitions held at the Ateneo. Although collection is uneven, catalog provides a panoramic view of the development of Puerto Rican arts"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
