Nat Silver is the Associate Director and Chief Curator at The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston. We discuss his formal education and Mrs Gardner's approach to collecting.
If you get to Italy, come to visit and see the fourth Italian armchair (the other 3 are in the Gothic Room at the Gardner) . Mentioned in "Italian furniture in the ISG Museum collection"

Wonderful museum.
I've not yet visited the Gardner, nor indeed Boston, but I'm more keen to so after reading this piece. What a collection and what a house!
