Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1993 xvi, 261 p. : ill. ; 25 cm. Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary: "Sociologist Halle toured 160 homes in and around New York City: a selection of affluent townhouses, rowhouses in a blue-collar neighborhood, and suburban houses. He walked through living rooms and dens, inventoried the works on display, and talked to homeowners about the art around them. The result is a portrait of the uses of art and its meanings for those who buy and live with it.". First Edition. Cloth. Very Good/Very Good.
