From the 1960s to 1990s. Marcel was undoubtedly a genius and was, as far as I know, the only Restorer for the Met without a PhD. In fact he had a sixth grade education. He was also a talented painter.I'm Max Lewin the curator of what remains of Marcel's extensive art collection, comprising ancient, tribal, Asian and European art.
