The Encyclopedia of Decorative Arts, 1890-1940Philippe Garner Van Nostrand Reinhold, 1978 - 320 There have been many books on the individual movements and figures of the decorative arts of this century, but "The Encyclopedia of Decorative Arts 1890-1940" is the first to provide a comprehensive and authoritative account of all the classic movements in design of the modern period. Every section of this encyclopedia has been written by an expert in that particular field. The editor of the volume is Philippe Garner, an expert at the London auction house of Sotheby Parke Bernet and head of the department of modern decorative arts and photography at Sotheby's Belgravia. |
