Surveying the collecting culture from the French Revolution to the Belle Époque, this study explores how material things became a central means by which the past was accessed and imagined in nineteenth-century Paris, revealing how the Revolution triggered the rise of a new market for antiques and new struggles over the custody of France's heritage.
