| Plot Summary of The Invisible Collection |
"During a 50 years period, a gentleman farmer has combined a fabulous collection of prints. Now, after WWI, because of galloping inflation, his family is terribly in need of money. The old man has become blind but is still checking his collection everyday. Little by little, his wife replaces unique pieces of the collection by blank sheets in order that the family survives the economical crisis. Her husband, unaware of this, still presents his collection to his visitors."
Daniel Staebler, Resident Scholar
