The Best of the Best,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: New England Furniture at Winterthur: Queen Anne and Chippendale Periods (Winterthur Book) (Hardcover)
For lovers of period furniture, this large book is like pressing your face against the candy store window. The Winterthur collection is the legacy of Henry Dupont. For those who haven't made the journey to Delaware, the Winterthur museum is the premier collection of colonial and early American furniture in existence. This exhaustive book focuses on the New England furniture, among the best in the collection. Each of the 225 pieces is shown in a photograph, often with several images of details. Unfortunately, the photographs are all in black and white (except the dust jacket). An average of 2-3 pages of text accompanies each piece. For the student of furniture design or the lover of fine furniture, this book is a treasure.
