Very Good/Very Good. light shelf wear to bottom of boards dust jacket with rubbing to extremities. <p>Nineteenth-century furniture has only recently begun to be treated as a serious study. In this book Elizabeth Aslin who has been instrumental in the collection of Victorian furniture by the Victoria and Albert Museum reveals the continuous and logical process of evolution throughout the period which threw up many new ideas and slowly and painfully led what had been a purely local craft through the hazards of the Industrial Revolution guided and exhorted by men like Pugin and William Morris. The schools of design from the late Regency to the founding of the 'Art Nouveau' are traced in fascinating detail and the book includes notes on the development and work of the major furniture-making firms established during this period. Illustrated with 135 monochrome plates and 4 plates in color.</p> <br/> <br/> Thomas Yoseloff hardcover‎

‎Himmelheber Georg‎

‎Biedermeier Furniture‎

‎London: Faber & Faber 1974. 1st . Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. previous owner's name at bottom of front endpaper dust jacket price-clipped. <p>The Biedermeier style was born during the death-throes of the Napoleonic Empire and matured in the succeeding decades. Like Empire and Louis Seize it was in essence a neo-classical style but there its similarities end. For Beidermeier furniture was the product of a radical upheaval. It was the outcome for a striving for comfort and innovation among the bourgeoisie of Germany and Austria who were laying the foundations for the industrial age in their countries and it was made by ordinary craftsmen living beyond the confines of the court. A major inspiration technical and artistic was England. Dr. Himmelheiber's book which was commissioned for the Furniture Monographs series is the first comprehensive treatment of the subject to appear in either English or German. Illustrated with 118 monochrome plates and 4 plates in color.</p> <br/> <br/> Faber & Faber hardcover‎
