BOCA RATON, FL.- What characterizes a “treasure” and what defines “greatness” in art? The criteria of a “treasure” – whether historical or contemporary – is decided by history.

These enduring masterworks help illuminate our view of modern and contemporary art, by refreshing our sense of historical aesthetic memory. American Treasures presents exquisite examples
