Very Rich and Handsome: American Neo-Classical Decorative Arts

Very Rich & Handsome, American Neo-Classical Decorative Arts, is a multi-media survey exhibition (and accompanying book) of furniture, metalwork, silver, lighting, ceramics, and glass made in America or specifically for an American clientele between 1810 and the early 1840s. Illustrating the strength and breadth of American artistry and workmanship, this exhibition visually reminds us of the indigenously American Neo-Classicism that Hirschl & Adler Galleries has previously explored through comprehensive exhibitions and publications over the last 24 years. Very Rich & Handsome, the sixth exhibition in our series, has been curated by father-daughter team Stuart P. Feld and Elizabeth Feld.
