About this Item

"George Bullock was a brilliantly original and stylish furniture maker and sculptor who died, probably aged 35, in 1818. Virtually forgotten from that moment, he is now suddenly arousing extraordinary interest among historians and collectors, provoking a description of him as 'a rival to Chippendale' {The Times}. The recent sale of pieces by him from Tew Park and the uncovering of information about the furniture he made for Napoleon on St. Helena have sent ripples through the art world." This book has 160 pages and is profusely illusatrated. The text contains NO internal marks whatsoever. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Bookseller Inventory # 065310
