A lovely exhibition catalogue,
By K. Maxwell "katmax1" (Sydney, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: An Elegant Art: Fashion and Fantasy in the Eighteenth Century (Paperback)
This is a beautiful exhibiton catalgue produced by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art for an exhibition in 1983 on 18th century costume.The book has a number of lovely colour photos of the costumes on display and is probably worth having for these alone, as they are outstanding for a US catalogue on this theme. The text comprises of a number of essays on the 18th century dealing with the following subjects: dress, movement, woven silk, embroidery, lace, tapestry and fancy dress, and an item by item listing of the exhibition. If you are interested in 18th century costume this is a book worth chasing up. |
