Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the transformative shift in taste and style that swept through furniture design and interior decor during a period of significant change. The author passionately advocates for embracing the classical elegance inspired by ancient sculpture and painting, evident in the opulent furnishings of stately homes and palaces. A central theme is the celebration of the â� �propitious changeâ� � in national taste, moving away from the excesses of the past towards a refined aesthetic rooted in the principles of classical design. The author meticulously examines the use of various materials, such as silk, mahogany, and satinwood, and provides detailed descriptions of furniture pieces, including window cornices, bed pillars, and drawing-room chairs. The book underscores the importance of studying antique specimens and understanding the spirit and principles behind their composition. By doing so, artists and craftsmen can create new forms and combinations that embody timeless elegance. The author's insights extend beyond mere aesthetics, touching upon the economic and social implications of evolving tastes and the role of patronage in fostering artistic innovation. Ultimately, this book serves as a testament to the enduring power of classical design principles and their ability to inspire creativity and elevate the art of furniture making to new heights.
