This volume explores twelve house museums, created over more than two centuries, and founded across the globe. What motivates collectors to establish independent house museums instead of donating their collections to preexisting institutions? How have collectors' original intentions manifested themselves in their museums? Have founder mandates aided the survival or caused the demise of their institutions? How have house museums' collections or buildings evolved over time? Must museums reinterpret their collections to remain relevant to contemporary and diverse audiences? In seeking to answer these questions, the volume's authors share the unique stories behind the creation and evolution of these fascinating institutions, and the intriguing stories of the exceptional individuals who founded them.

Contributors: Aiste Bimbiryte, Eliza Butler, Chih-En Chen, Enrico Colle, Allegra Davis, Marissa Hershon, Mia Laufer, Ulrike M?ller, Nadine Nour el Din, Inge Reist, Anne Nellis Richter, and Georgina S. Walker.
