WR Hearst amassed a massive collection of art objects that spanned centuries of history. From a stylistic standpoint he seemed to prefer the Gothic and Renaissance periods. He had very little admiration for artwork from his own time. But if you look hard enough, you will find modern/contemporary art sprinkled throughout the Castle.
