Book First Edition
Softcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. The Thorne Rooms, sixty-eight miniature models of European interiors from the 16th century on and American furnishings from the 17th century on, have entranced generations of visitors to the Art Institute of Chicago. This charming book showcases these rooms, featuring full-color views of each one as well as eight two-page spreads of some of the most spectacular interiors. The introductory essay by Bruce Hatton Boyer chronicles how Chicago socialite Mrs. James Ward Thorne conceived the rooms. They were made between 1934 and 1940 by a number of skilled craftsmen according to her exacting specifications. Many of the rooms were inspired by specific interiors in historic houses, palaces, and sites Mrs. Thorne visited during her travels, and Fannia Weingartners individual commentaries provide information about each one. In addition, a number of Mrs. Thornes original drawings are reproduced to actual scale.

Book
Hardcover. Condition: used. Spectacularly beautiful, this authoritative book presents jewelry designs of this century. With almost two hundred full-color photographs specially commissioned for this book and archival pictures of pieces that have disappeared into private collections, the volume features the finest artworks in precious metals and jewels from collections around the world, including creations by Lalique, Cartier, Boucheron, Bulgari, Tiffany, and David Webb. The fascinating text surveys the glittering world of gems with an illustrated introductory essay investigating the development of jewelry design at the end of the 1800s, and the shift from Victorian and Art Nouveau works to pieces stamped with the personality and vision of a single designer. The next chapter thoroughly examines the successive revolutions in style of the twentieth century. The balance of the book is a cornucopia of photographs portraying pieces from the beginning of the century through the 1960s: the grand era of commissions and patrons. Here you will find the Duchess of Windsor's famous necklace of diamonds and rubies as well as a fabulous pin in the shape of a World War II tank, and a veritable menagerie of diamond-studded elephants, enameled tigers, and jade dragons. This thorough history is a dazzling jewelbox of a book.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. 3rd Edition. As the Los Angeles Times noted, "Anyone just now waking up to the fact that women have been missing from written art history would do well to begin withthis attractive, even-tempered survey of American and European women artists from the Renaissance to the present."With its lavish color illustrations--the paintings and sculptures are all reproduced in full color--and numerous documentary pictures of the artists themselves, Women Artists: An Illustrated History provides an unprecedented wealth of visual material on the subject. This updated third edition adds several new international artists--including MonaHatoum, Kiki Smith, Carrie May Weems, and Rachel Whiteread--to bring the content up to the minute.That centuries of women artists have created professional, provocative, and appealing work is no longer the well-kept secret it once was. Nonetheless, there are still many discoveries to be made, as this beautiful book makes clear by chronicling five centuries of women painters and sculptors, from Sofonisba Anguissola to Sandy Skoglund. Many of these artists achieved local or even international fame during their lifetimes. Marie-Louise-Elisabeth Vigee-Lebrun was so renowned a court portraitist that she had to flee France the night Marie Antoinette was arrested in order to escape certain death on the guillotine. Another royal favorite, Lady Elizabeth Butler, won both fame and fortune with her monumental battle scenes; Queen Victoria had one installed for a private showing at Buckingham Palace, and when it went on public view, extra policemen had to behired to control the crowds rushing to see it.Nancy G. Heller's text offers a lively overview of the obstacles that women encountered-restricted access to education and apprenticeship, social pressures to marry and mother, limited opportunities to travel and exhibit--but she most emphasizes the ingenious ways that generations of women artists circumvented these obstacles to establishthemselves as well-respected professionals. Many were the daughters or sisters of artists and eagerly absorbed all that their families could teach them. Many reversed tradition by painting to support their often extensive offspring while their husbands stayed home to run the household. And many overturned the prevailing restrictions to become members of previously all-male institutions. The stories of these talented, ambitious, and dedicated women fill this enlightening volume and enrich the history of art.Other Details:207 illustrations, 152 in full color280 pages10 x 10"Published 1997.
