Book excerpt: Antiques in Italian Interiors, Volume II presents a collection of extravagant Italian interiors that house marvelous collections of artwork and antiques. Following the success of the previous volume in the series (published by Verba Volant in 2005), this new book will open the doors to more private residences belonging to merchant princes, collectors, and royalty. The fifteen interiors selected by art historian Roberto Valeriani and architectural photographer Mario Ciampi are located throughout the Italian peninsula. In the capital city the Galleria Colonna, with its opulent halls and parlors, contains a celebrated art collection that belongs to a prestigious Roman family. Embellished with frescos dating back to the seventeenth century, the princely baroque spaces boast masterpieces from the fifteenth to the eighteenth century. The book passes from one noted locale to another, from the affluence of the papal Rome to the opulence of Catania where Palazzo Biscari, the oldest baroque palace in Sicily, was the one of the settings for Goethe's Italian Journey . The rich style and ambience of the collection of interiors in this volume demonstrates the full power of the elegance that can only be achieved by arranging precious artwork and antiques in stunning spaces with classic Italian style.

Book excerpt: Here is a sumptuous showcase of the marvellous range of antiques - ranging from miniatures to rare decorative objects to precious period furniture - housed in some of the most beautiful private residences in Italy. Most of these photographs, taken by Mario Ciampi over the last twenty years, are published here for the first time. The residences range in scale from gorgeous palatial villas to relatively modest homes, and from the great cities of Italy - Venice, Florence, Naples and Rome - to the smaller, but equally beautiful, cities of Lucca, Positano and Siena. Of particular interest is the Museo Mario Praz in Rome, home to an extraordinary collection of 1,200 pieces of furniture, marble, bronze, silver and crystal works of art. Also featured is renowned art historian Frederico Zeri's house in Mentana, which contains a priceless collection of Roman epigraphs and a vast art and photography library. All of the interiors in this book attest to the special allure of antiques and to the beguiling rewards of collecting.

Book Synopsis Old World Interiors by : David Naylor
Download or read book Old World Interiors written by David Naylor and published by Gibbs Smith. This book was released on 2008 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interior designer David Naylor embraces the broad range of possibilities presented by a world of materials old and new, of objects both found and manufactured. He calls his approach "infusion design," by which he means capturing the ideas of the Old World without forgetting about the present, stirring melting pots of cultures and allowing opposites to coexist, and pulling together objects from around the world. The timelessness, natural warmth, and adaptability of the popular Southwesternstyle aesthetic provide an appealing backdrop for his interpretations, which eschew the clich�s while retaining the essence. The architectural elements of the region-round beams, adobe walls, natural wood finishes-create a versatile aesthetic that can embrace an infinite variety of designs, while the nomadic nature of Americans generally, who move freely about the country bringing their favorite decor items with them, makes for limitless opportunities to infuse designs with intriguing juxtapositions and unexpected placements. Chapters include: Old World, New World Luxe Americana Contemporary Comfort Mixing It Up Trained as a painter and visual artist, David Naylor turned to furniture and interior design and has opened his own workrooms and showroom to feature pieces that he incorporates into his design commissions. He has studied at Philadelphia College of Art and later the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. His designstudio, Visions Design Group, is located in Santa Fe, NM.

Download or read book The World of Federico Forquet written by Hamish Bowles and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweeping survey of the work of celebrated bon vivant Federico Forquet--whose decades-long design career has embraced couture fashion, elegant interiors, and imaginative gardens, reflecting both the best of Italian style and the dolce vita era of Rome. Through his long and crowded life, polyglot designer Federico Forquet has been by turns a couturier who learned his craft at Balenciaga's side and whose creations for his eponymous house clothed the best-dressed women of the day; a decorator of interiors of singular style and charm; a discriminating collector of rare and beautiful objects, furnishings, and pictures; and a creator of magical gardens. For the first time, the many worlds of this creative visionary are brought together in a richly illustrated celebration of style: from imagery of his lavish haute-couture gowns featured in 1960s and '70s Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and other fashionable publications and worn by trendsetters such as Marella Agnelli, Sophia Loren, and Diana Vreeland to picturesque scenes of verdant Tuscan gardens and opulent, old-world Roman villas and palazzos decorated by Forquet. Accompanied by insightful texts from the design world's authoritative voices, this inspiring and utterly enchanting tome will appeal to readers fascinated by fashion, social history, gardens, interior design, and Italian style.
