The article examines the contribution of the British art historian and critic Roger Fry to the study of Italian painting of the Renaissance, his role in the noble community of that time, work on the search for works for large museums (special attention is paid to his relations with the Metropolitan Museum and its patron J.P. Morgan) and attribution problems. The study notes the evolution of Fry's views, going from interests in Italian art to the works of modern masters and the creation of a theory of “significant form”.
