Summary
"This exhibition catalogue features an extraordinary assembly of objects dating from the 3rd to the 8th century CE that belong to Emanuel and Anna Nadler of New York City and Palm Beach. The Nadler family has long been one of the most important collectors of Coptic art, which was made by and for native Egyptians, Greeks and Romans who favored both classical pagan and Christian themes. "Modernism Foretold" draws attention to the history of the collection and to changing perceptions of late antique art from Egypt"--
