John Hungerford Pollen

Ancient and Modern Furniture and Woodwork

This brilliant work by English writer on crafts and furniture, John Hungerford Pollen (1820–1902), is an interesting study of ancient and modern furniture and woodwork. He carefully reviews them and carries us back to the days in which these pieces of artistic furniture were made. This work makes the reader familiar to the taste and techniques, the habits and the needs, of those olden ages which eventually leads to a comparison between the furniture and woodwork of that era and the modern times. Contents include: Furniture Ancient and Modern Antique: Egypt, Nineveh and Greece The Romans Byzantine Art The Middle Ages The Fifteenth Century The Renaissance in Italy Renaissance in England, Flanders, France, Germany, and Spain Tudor and Stuart Styles Furniture of the Eighteenth Century Changes of Taste and Style Appendix: Names of the Designers of Woodwork and Makers of Furniture
