An alluring look at the relationship of clothing and interior design in 18th-century France
The eighteenth century has been seen as a Golden Age of design and craftsmanship. This book goes well beyond these ideas and investigates the various developments in the infrastructure of the eighteenth-century furniture world.
Anna Thomson Dodge, heiress to the automotive fortune, built a great home and decorated it with one of the finest groups of 18th-century French decorative arts in America. Here are more than 130 pieces of furniture, sculpture, metalwork, tapestries, Sevres porcelain, and paintings, many from royal collections.
"Caught between the Theatricality of the Baroque and the acute sensibility of Romanticism, art in Rome in the eighteenth century has long been a neglected area of study." "The grand scale and spectacular diversity of the period are comprehensively captured for the first time in this definitive history of the period, produced to accompany a major U.S. exhibition organized by the Philadelphia Museum of Art and The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and documenting the work of over 150 artists. With over 450 illustrations, and texts by an outstanding array of experts from around the world, Art in Rome in the Eighteenth Century provides a massively authoritative survey of a fascinating era."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
