Foreign Currency Volatility and the Market for French Modernist Art examines how the collapse of the French franc in the decades following the First World War activated powerful 'push' and 'pull' economic forces that compelled French art collectors to monetise their collections while simultaneously elevating the purchasing power of international art collectors.
