Blue cloth boards with stamped gilt lettering on cover and spine; blue cloth slipcase xxvii 423 pp; color frontispiece 215 plates chiefly bw eight in color. A sharp bright copy. From the introduction: Interest in the Limoges enamels of the Renaissance was aroused in France as a consequence of the romantic movement and in particular of the predilection of such writers as Balzac Theophile Gautier and Prosper Merimee for evoking the drama of life at the Valois court in the Ile de France and the Loire valley during the sixteenth century and the magnificence of the art and fashion there. From the 1830s and 1840s no French art collector in the field of European decorative arts considered his collection complete without including masterpieces of the Limoges enamellers. The quest for Limoges enamels was no less passionate in England. Trustees of the Walters Art Gallery hardcover books
1979réf. 24608New York: Rizzoli 1979. Softcover. VG- Small sticker inside front cover minor wear to edges. Tan illustrated wraps with black lettering 167 pp. Numerous bw and color illustrations. "The extravagant elegance of the fin-de-siecle left its most durable legacy in the field of the applied arts and the name of Emile Galle ranks with those of Mucha Lalique de Feure and Guimard among the men who combined an artistic vision of the highest order with the exacting and centuries old standards of European craftsmanship. Of the two centres of Art Nouveau in France Paris and Nancy it was Galle's devotion to the artistic heritage of the craft guilds which created the Nancy school. Philippe Garner's perceptive and sympathetic analysis the first full scale study to appear in English not only places Galle within context of Art Nouveau but also examines his involvement with the Symbolist poets the literary significance which this imparted to his work and the manner in which he captured in sculptural dorm the whole spiriti of turn of the century Europe. Galle's mastery of richly transluscenet colors and elegant tracery of curving lines is nowhere more obvious than in his glasswork the vases bowls and lighting fixtures in exquisite shades of lilac paink and orange which established Galle and his workshops as the foremost glass producers of the period. These same qualitites of linear grace and tonal subtley penetrated all of Galle's work from the deeply tinted furniture carved in exotic woof to his decorative and exhuberant pieces in faience. Emile Galle's position as one of the most provacative and multi-faceted talents in Europe at the turn of the century is here confirmed by the richness and variety of his oeuvre in all media the distillation of an artistic vision which impresses primarily by its nuances and its delicacy." - blurb from back of book.
