Download or read book The Period Furniture Handbook Classic Reprint written by G. Glen Gould and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Period Furniture Handbook What we need, in order to form an accurate con ception of the style of furniture of any particular period, is facts, and not an expression of a writer's personal feeling, either in preference for any par ticular style or detestation of it. Unhappily the ability to enjoy what is delightful in every period is not common. The critic who knows everything there is to be known about every one of the period styles is not always as wise a guide as one who has that God-given ability to select unerringly what is best in each. There is not a single one of the period styles which has not some excellent examples of furniture design and craftsman ship to its credit. To discredit the Baroque or the Rococo, the Empire or the Victorian in order to exalt the Gothic or the Renaissance is silly. Each incorporates its own ideas of suitability, dignity, decoration, and comfort. The pomp and state of the rectangular types in Europe and America prior to the 18th Century, all count for nothing when you drop at nightfall into your easy-chair, if it is easy. And can you be grateful enough for that welcome over-stuffing of seat, and back, and arms which enfolds you with a restfulness achieved only in the Victorian era!

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illustrated Catalogue: Retrospective Exhibition of the Decorative Arts On the stage are two casement windows of stained glass, with transoms above. This glass is German, and dated 1516, and is very finely painted. There are also several panels of Italian Renaissance stained glass, delicately drawn. With so great a variety of objects there can be little or no attempt at classification or installation according to period, excepting in such cases as those of the Georgian work shown in Allston Hall and the New England collection in the room sat the right; but the rare and beautiful quality of the work is admirably decorative, and exemplifies the fact that the best in art, however varied in character the objects associated may be, is harmonious in general effect.
