Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Over two hundred and fifty masterpieces from one of the most magnificent eras in the decorative arts are featured in this book, ranging from the splendors of courtly art under Louis XIV to the dazzling creations inspired first by Madame de Pompadour under Louis XV and then by Queen Marie-Antoinette under Louis XVI. A broad perspective on interior decoration, luxury goods, and the art market is offered through lavish furniture by the likes of André-Charles Boulle and Charles Cressent durine, the Régence, through extravagant dinner services, and through the magnificent porcelain and tapestries produced by the royal manufactories, constituting a 'moment of perfection in French art' that lasted until the Revolution. The Louvre's new rooms devoted to seventeenth- and eighteenth-century decorative arts opened in May 2014. Some two thousand items are displayed in nearly twenty thousand square feet of exhibition space, representing one of the world's finest collections of furnishings and objets d'art from the reign of Louis XIV, through that of Louis XVI. The new galleries are organized chronologically and are punctuated by spectacular period rooms that recreate the magnificent wood-paneled interiors of lavish residences and princely palaces in eighteenth-century Paris. These reconstitutions of a bygone period provide the setting for truly remarkable objets d'art from the Louvre's Department or Decorative Arts--now placed in their original intellectual and material context, these items recreate a vanished atmosphere and reveal their full meaning as well as their full beauty."--Page [4] of cover.

Book excerpt: A new style evolved in the decade of 1720-30. Now the Europeans would treat their "Chinese" and "Indian" subjects in a more fanciful manner, far removed from reality and often quite caricatural. Such chinoiserie owed much to the French, whose work would influence the whole of Europe. The development coincided with the emergence of the Rococo, an artistic manifestation all but synonymous with the reign of Louis XV. If chinoiserie cannot be identitified totally with the Rococo, it was certainly one of the more important aspects of that style, which in a very subtle manner combined Far Eastern elements with European motifs. -- Introduction.
