Murdoch is Deputy Curator in the Department of Furniture and Wookwork at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.
Ellenor Alcorn has neatly ... made the Cahn collection of silver marked by de Lamerie into an illustration of the complexities of authorship in silver ... Tessa Murdoch elegantly sets the scene by describing the Huguenot community in London during the period. --Christopher Hartop, The Burlington Magazine
Ellenor Alcorn [has produced] a lively, up-to-date picture of the interdependence and working relationships of eighteenth-century master silversmiths. The reader gains not only knowledge of de Lamerie as a silversmith and businessman but as a man who was committed to the Huguenot community ... The catalog features beautiful photos and meticulous research for each object and as such is a treat for English silver aficionados. --Dorothea Burstyn, Silver Magazine
