American Furniture 1620 to Present-Jonathan Fairbanks, Elizabeth Bidwell Bates
American Furniture is the definitive book in its field, one of the great examples of scholarship and book design of the past decades. Extensive coverage of the masterpieces of every era, from the seventeenth century to the present, many of them newly photographed for this book. The book has a running text along with its identification captions, which places furniture in its social and historical context. Exquisite line drawings reveal how antique furniture was made--and therefore how to tell a genuine antique from a forgery. 100 color pictures, 1300 black and white photos. 561pp. Oversize/heavy. HARDCOVER with pictorial dustjacket. Previous owner's dedication on ffep and stamp on top edge. Else, clean, tight, very light jacket edgewear, and unmarked pages throughout. Price intact. FINE/FINE.
