...moving back to Europe, where on a whim she bought an unfinished Venetian palace, nicknamed Palazzo Nonfinito, she staged Pollock's first Italian show in 1950. By then Life magazine had already posed the question, "JACKSON POLLOCK: IS HE THE GREATEST LIVING PAINTER IN THE UNITED STATES?" But her life as a collector was not quite complete.
