Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Ornament, Ancient and Medieval Books on ornament are so many that to add to their number may seem at first sight a wholly superfluous task. Yet in all the long lists of the bibliographies of the subject there appears a singular lack of systematic treatises on the history of the various styles which have marked the growth and progress of decorative art. Elaborate compendium of ornament grouped by styles or by other categories are not wanting; the splendid "Grammar of Ornament" of Owen Jones, and "Ornament polychrome" of Racinet; the "Ornamentenscliatz" of Dolmetsch, the "Handbook of Ornament" of Franz Sales Meyer, Speltz's "Styles of Ornament," and the excellent plates of "Historic Ornament" published by the Prang Educational Company, are examples of such collections of ornament, all meritorious in various ways, and all highly serviceable to students and decorators. But in the whole catalogue of the Avery Library of Columbia University - the richest collection in this country of works on architecture and the allied arts - I have found but two titles of systematic histories of ornament, one in French and one in German; neither available for those who read only English, and neither of them, even for those who can read French or German, exactly suited to the needs of the average English or American student of architecture or decoration.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Ornament, Ancient and Medieval The predominance of illustrations from architecture is due not merely to the fact that these chapters are based on lectures to architects; but also to the fact that the styles are most clearly exhibited in the progress of architecture as the mistress art. It is hoped that the Books Recommended will enable the reader to supply for himself the illustrations from the other arts which he finds lacking in this work.

Download or read book Histories of Ornament written by Gülru Necipoğlu and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lavishly illustrated volume is the first major global history of ornament from the Middle Ages to today. Crossing historical and geographical boundaries in unprecedented ways and considering the role of ornament in both art and architecture, Histories of Ornament offers a nuanced examination that integrates medieval, Renaissance, baroque, and modern Euroamerican traditions with their Islamic, Indian, Chinese, and Mesoamerican counterparts. At a time when ornament has re-emerged in architectural practice and is a topic of growing interest to art and architectural historians, the book reveals how the long history of ornament illuminates its global resurgence today. Organized by thematic sections on the significance, influence, and role of ornament, the book addresses ornament's current revival in architecture, its historiography and theories, its transcontinental mobility in medieval and early modern Europe and the Middle East, and its place in the context of industrialization and modernism. Throughout, Histories of Ornament emphasizes the portability and politics of ornament, figuration versus abstraction, cross-cultural dialogues, and the constant negotiation of local and global traditions. Featuring original essays by more than two dozen scholars from around the world, this authoritative and wide-ranging book provides an indispensable reference on the histories of ornament in a global context.

Cummins (Harvard); Chanchal Dadlani (Wake Forest); Daniela del Pesco (Universita degli Studi Roma Tre); Vittoria Di Palma (USC); Anne Dunlop (University of Melbourne); Marzia Faietti (University of Bologna); María Judith Feliciano (independent scholar); Finbarr Barry Flood (NYU); Jonathan Hay (NYU); Christopher P.
