The Schiller Collection of Social Commentary Art is unequaled in America. Cohesive in them and monumental in scope, it consists of over 500 works that reflect the tumultuous eras that rocked our nation's history between 1930 and 1970: the Great Depression, World War II, McCarthyism, the Civil Rights Movement, and the Vietnam War. This book highlights 71 paintings, drawings and prints collected by Philip J. and Suzanne Schiller over the past twenty years.
