Abstract
The article focuses on two collectors – Nélie Jacquemart André, who was French, and Isabella Stewart Gardner, who was American. Both ladies created fascinating collections at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries including a wide range of art objects from different periods. The core of these private collections was the art of the Italian Renaissance. The study deals with the questions of the formation of these sets of Renaissance works of art, methods of acquisitions, the nature of collection objects, and especially installation principles applied in two museum collections that are now publicly accessible – the Musée Jacquemart-André in Paris and the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston.
