- Information
Description
Mirrors dating from Egypt's New Kingdom, circa 1300 B.C., through the Art Nouveau movement at the beginning of the twentieth century A.D. are arranged in chronological groups to demonstrate the gradual development of artistic styles.
The rich history of glass production in Europe directly influenced interior design in general and mirror designs in particular.
Here are European, English and American examples from common as well as Royal households.
The author has included reproductions of period paintings of room interiors which display mirrors in their normal surroundings in taverns, bedrooms, dressing rooms and reception rooms alike.
There are 16 color and 660 black and white photographs and many engraved drawings.
