Description:
2015. 271 pages. Approx 300 colour illustrations. Hardback 29 x 25cms. ISBN: 9785950102264, 9785950102240. A substantive introduction on the works themselves, the craftsmen and architects who designed them, techniques of construction, and the iconography of patterns and scenes incorporated in the marquetry precedes the catalogue of an exhibition at Peterhof Palace-Museum. The works of furniture art come from the Hermitage, Peterhof, and the Karisalov collections and date from the 1760s through to the 1790s. The designs originated in Russia but were devised by both Western European architects working in Russia such as Charles Cameron and by Russian architects. Usually the same great talents that designed the palaces also did the details of interior. Beautifully laid out and nicely printed, this catalogue will be a basic source on eighteenth-century European design. Text in English.
