Veronique Chagnon-Burke is the academic director of Christie's Education and she will be joining us from New York this July to give a lecture on historic house museums, which could be seen as the predecessor to private museums, so popular in this part of the world today. Her lecture will draw from examples such as The Frick Collection in New York, the Musee Jacquemart-Andre in Paris and the Isabella Steward Gardner Museum in Boston, and chart their evolution. Veronique is a specialist in the history of 19th century French art and her fields of expertise also include 19th century art criticism and women artists.

在十九世紀的歐洲和美國,興起一批新的收藏家:奉獻時間和精力來構建獨特的環境去展示他們的珍寶。從倫敦、紐約到巴黎,這些收藏家們花了畢生的精力去世界各地收集藝術品。對於這些以超乎尋常的熱情而獲得的特別物件們,理查·華萊士爵士、伊莎貝拉·斯圖爾德.加德納等各位收藏家,有一個共同的願望和純粹個人的追求:留下一筆遺產讓公眾得以欣賞這些藝術品。本次講座,佳士得學院的學術總監維羅妮卡·沙尼翁·布林克博士,專程從紐約赴港,讓我們近距離地探索這些鍍金時代的收藏家們,怎樣更好地發展他們的個人願景。
