(Publisher:) "This book tells the story of design and the decorative arts in Britain from the end of the Middle Ages to the beginning of the eighteenth century. It is the story of a remarkable transformation, which embraced design and the decorative arts in all their rich diversity. At the start of the sixteenth century, Britain played a peripheral role in the affairs of Europe. The great centres of European design and decorative art, as of wealth and power, lay to the south and to the east. It was beautiful things created in the workshops of Venice and Florence, Antwerp and Paris that were coveted in Britain, not those made in London or Edinburgh. Two hundred years later, in Queen Anne's reign, all this had changed. Britain was well on the way to becoming Europe's most successful commercial economy and British design and decorative art were no longer provincial. From furniture to fabrics, prints to pottery, British designers and craftspeople began to match their most eminent European rivals. Lavishly illustrated and unmatched in its coverage, this book explores design and the decorative arts from a number of points of view. It assesses their place in the wider history of Tudor and Stuart Britain. It examines style, the question of how things looked. It asks who led taste; who decided what was to be considered beautiful, fashionable and desirable. It looks at how fashionable things - from houses to clothing - were used. It asks what was new, examining new products and innovations in the ways they were made. Together, the chapters provide a fascinating picture of design and the decorative arts in Tudor and Stuart Britain. Written and edited by Michael Snodin and John Styles of the Victoria and Albert Museum, with additional contributions from a number of specialists who have worked at the Museum, the book complements the Tudor and Stuart sections of the V&A's new British Galleries, 1500-1900. It benefits from the V&A's unequalled resources for the study of design and the decorative arts. Over three hundred colour illustrations are drawn mostly from the Museum's collections".…

Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. 4to (28.5 cm), 167, [1] pp. Laminated wrappers with flaps (wrappers slightly discolored). "The book tells the story of design and decorative arts in Britain during the reign of Queen Victoria. With an empire that embraced a fifth of the earth's land surface and a quarter of its people, Britain was the workshop of the world. London was rivaled only by Paris as a focus for international interest in design and the decorative arts and British products could be found across the globe. Lavishly illustrated and unmatched in its coverage, this book explores design and the decorative arts from a number of points of view. It assesses their place in the wider history of Victorian Britain. It examines style, the question of how things looked. It asks who led taste, who decided what was to be considered beautiful, fashionable and desirable. It looks at how fashionable things - from houses to clothing - were used.

Together, the chapters provide an indispensable resource for the study of design and the decorative arts in Victorian Britain." (from the blurb).…

About the book >.>.> This book tells the story of design and the decorative arts in Britain from the accession of George I to the start of Queen Victoria's reign. The word Georgian is more than just a label for this period in British history - it has come to signify the design and decorative arts of an era regarded by many as the pinnacle of elegance and refinement. But the reputation enjoyed by designers like Thomas Chippendale, Robert Adam and Thomas Sheraton was hard won. At the beginning of the Georgian period, Britain was not a trendsetter in design and the decorative arts. The work of British designers and craftspeople earned international acclaim only gradually during the Georgian years. This growing international respect went hand-in-hand with Britain's rise to prominence as a world power and the transformations in production methods associated with the Industrial Revolution. Lavishly illustrated and unmatched in its coverage, this book explores design and the decorative arts from a number of points of.…
