A taste for grandeur: the collection of a modern Medici

Spanning over 300 years of sculpture, painting and decorative art, Modern Medici: Masterpieces from a New York Collection, will be offered at Christie’s in New York on 27 January. 

Inspired by the 15th-century Italian private spaces of study and contemplation known as studiolos, the spirit of this collection is one of scholarly interest and a studied appreciation for beauty. Above all, it reflects the age-old phenomenon of visitors coming away from Italy enriched in every sense.
