Paperback. Condition: Good. This beautiful, highly influential book, long a classic in its field, remains today one of the most comprehensive and best-organized presentations of historic ornamental design. The original 100 color plates, meticulously reproduced here from the rare original folio edition, present a dazzling spectrum of copyright-free design motifs from both ancient and modern cultures. The Grammar of Ornament features designs from around the world: the West to the Far East and many cultures in between. Graphic and fine artists will find nearly three thousand designs rendered in fine detail from a variety of sources: Greek and Roman borders and mosaics Celtic designs taken from manuscripts Motifs from medieval paintings and stained glass Floral patterns from Chinese porcelain, wood, and fabrics Illuminated script from the Koran Ornamentation from Turkish mosques and tombs Moorish designs from the Alhambra Connoisseurs of art and design will find the book's rich display of decorative motifs an endless source of contemplative pleasures. The work of the celebrated English designer and architect Owen Jones, The Grammar of Ornament, initially published in 1856, was the first book to present a global and historical range of ornament in color, the first to display primitive art for its design content, and among the first to suggest nature as a basic design source. Widely used and circulated, this prophetic work ushered in a major change in Western aesthetics and heralded the move towards nonrepresentational art. Its value as a beautifully organized and produced pictorial museum of historic ornamental design remains unsurpassed.…

One of the world's best-loved historians Sister Wendy Beckett combines her deep knowledge of art history with her unique powers of observation to create a personal anthology of over 50 Impressionist masterpieces. Led by visionary artists such as Manet Monet and Pissarro the Impressionists sought to capture the brilliant colours of nature and the ever-changing effects of light on a scene. Sister Wendy invites us to immerse ourselves in the colourful energizing and revolutionary paintings of this late 19th-century movement.From Bonnard and Cezanne to Toulouse-Lautrec and Vuillard all the artists are presented alphabetically and each is represented by one or two key works. Here you will find the leading French Impressionists including Degas Renoir and Signac. Also represented are Singer Sargent and Whistler American artists who trained in Paris and knew and worked alongside the Impressionists. Sister Wendy also includes Mary Cassatt and Berthe Morisot female Impressionists whose paintings captured the intimacy of domestic life. Sister Wendy invites us to take a fresh look at Impressionism. Seen through her eyes each of the paintings in her wide-ranging selection weaves its magic around you when you follow her lead. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.
