| Summary: | The Charles C. Dent Collection is an astonishing phenomenon. It stands as evidence of what the perceptive eye, backed by extensive knowledge and fortified with careful observations made in the museums and libraries of the world, can accomplish in resurrecting from dusty and anonymous obscurity extraordinary pieces of sculpture belonging to a remote time. This combination of knowledge, observation and a remarkable gift of acute perception, strengthened by infallible visual memory, accounts for what is seen here at the Allentown Art Museum and in this first volume of the catalogue. / |
