Description

An interesting insight on a broad range of Italian craftworks from the sixteenth, seventeenth, eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries. With over 350 colour photographs and drawings, and an informed critical text, this exceptional exhibition catalogue shows the evolution of taste in the Italian and European courts from late mannerism through to the first decades of last century. A significant work that casts new light on the subject and serves as an invaluable resource for scholars and furniture collectors alike.
