Gloria Ehret / John Andrews- Englische Möbel


Ehret, Gloria / Andrews, John: English Furniture
Augsburg: Battenberg, 1990 (Battenberg Antiques Catalogues)
ISBN 3-89441-031-0

This richly illustrated catalogue offers a compact overview of English furniture art from the late Middle Ages to the time of Edward VII.
In addition to an introduction to the history of style (Tudor, Stuart, Georgian, Victorian), the work contains an extensive catalogue section with a systematic typology. The particular merit of the publication lies in the vivid presentation of individual types of furniture (from chests to secretaire and teapoys) with the aid of numerous photographs and brief descriptions.
