Issued in conjunction with several 2004 exhibitions showcasing the work of Victorian designer Christopher Dresser (1834-1904). "His is hardly a household name, but his position as the first professional designer for indu…stry has made him one of the most influential figures of the nineteenth century as seen through twenty-first-century eyes. The road to full recogniztion of his importance has been long and slow." (foreword) With seven essays and chapters that devote space to Dresser's life as well as his creations in furnishings, textiles, ceramics, and more. Fascinating.

Condition: COME NUOVO. V & A Publications cm.22,5x27,5, pp.240, illustrato. legatura editoriale cartonata con sopraccoperta. Dresser was also a pioneer in his vision of industry as a means to spread the tenets of good design. Working with over fifty manufacturers, he produced an astonishing range of reasonably priced, widely ava…ilable consumer goods, while his belief in the supremacy of form over ornament resulted in designs that were truly radical in relation to contemporary Victorian taste. Seven leading specialists in the field explore the impact of Christopher Dresser's work in the context of that of his contemporaries such as Pugin, Owen Jones and Godwin. Over 300 illustrations illuminate the vast scope of his output, from Gothic-Revival castiron to the experimental and highly innovative shapes and glazes of Linthorpe ceramics and his astonishingly modern metalwork. This ground-breaking book reassesses not only individual designs (many of them previously unattributed) but also his varied sources of inspiration, including the strong Japanese influence in his later work, and the profound impact his work has had on future generations.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Christopher Dresser (18341904) was the first industrial designer of the modern era. A true radical, he favored form over ornament, and his stylish, spare, and astonishingly modern designs contrast sharply with the highly ornate work of his Victorian contemporaries. Believing that good design could be p…opularized through industry, Dresser worked with more than 50 manufacturers to produce an enormous variety of reasonably priced, widely available consumer products. This book is published to accompany the first comprehensive exhibition devoted to his career. More than 300 superb color photographs reveal Dresser's highly innovative ceramics, cast-iron garden furniture, and stark, geometric silverplate tableware, as well as previously unattributed designs for textiles, wallpaper, and glass. With essays based on the latest research, this stunning volume brings Dresser the attention he deserves.
