Beyond Blue and White | Autographed

Description

The book BEYOND BLUE AND WHITE: The Hidden History of Delftware and the Women Behind the Iconic Ceramic has been autographed by author Genevieve Wheeler Brown at the October 2025 book presentation hosted by the Holland Society.

Set against the backdrop of New York’s cultural evolution, BEYOND BLUE AND WHITE traces the influence of pioneering women such as Alice Claypoole Vanderbilt and her daughter Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, whose collecting shaped tastes and institutions.  The author also weaves in stories from the Bronx’s colonial past to the founding of New York’s great museums, spotlighting the critical yet often overlooked role women played as curators, patrons, and preservationists.
