Description
The Gloom of the Museum is a novel written by John Cotton Dana and published in 1917. The story revolves around the protagonist, an art museum director named David Kent, who is struggling to keep his museum afloat in the face of financial difficulties and declining public interest. As he tries to find ways to attract more visitors and secure funding, he becomes embroiled in a series of mysterious and unsettling events that threaten to undermine his efforts.As the title suggests, the book has a dark and eerie atmosphere, with many scenes taking place in the museum's dimly lit halls and galleries. The story is also notable for its exploration of the role of art in society, and the tension between artistic expression and commercial considerations. Throughout the book, Dana raises questions about the value of art and the responsibilities of those who curate and display it.Overall, The Gloom of the Museum is a thought-provoking and suspenseful novel that will appeal to readers interested in art, history, and mystery. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of museum curation and the challenges faced by those who work to preserve and promote cultural heritage.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
