About this title

Synopsis

This book is the second to be published on the stunning collection of Arts and Crafts objects that are held at the Cheltenham Art Gallery and Museum.
In this book, the decorative arts relating to the person and to the domestic interior are given full attention.
Three accompanying essays explore the Arts and Crafts domestic interior, and define the Movement and its relationship to Art Nouveau and Modernism. They also examine the Arts and Crafts approach to dress and jewellery.
