Muse offers an inside view of the development of a contemporary Australian art collection.

Art philanthropist and collector Janet Holmes à Court discusses 150 works from her collection of more than 5,000 artworks that span Australian art since the 19th century. She shares her thoughts and feelings with Terri-ann White in the racks where the art is stored and in domestic spaces where they hang. This is an illuminating book about a passion for art and expression, a deep affinity and curiosity about artists, and how they make things. Art collectors, artists, visual art practitioners, curators, art goers and enthusiasts, and those interested in Australian art history will find this book enlightening.
