Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ironwork, Vol. 3: A Complete Survey of the Artistic Working of Iron in Great Britain From the Earliest Times Not only was it the chief Iron Country of the Romans in Britain, but it held the premier position throughout mediaeval history. With a circuit of about 30 miles between the Severn and the Wye, its ores rich, abundant, easily accessible and near the surface, it combined a supply of fuel which for centuries appeared well-nigh inexhaustible. In Roman times, and even earlier, the exports must have been large, though unfortunately Pliny speaks only in general terms of the iron smelting of Britain. The trade was probably. In the possession of the Basques, or other of the many races acquainted with iron, who may have found refuge here in prehistoric times. Our gleam ing cliffs must, times out of number, have appeared a land of safety to peoples driven west by conquering hordes, which Asia seemed ever ready to pour forth, resulting in the par celling out of our Island by many tribes under different rulers.

Book Synopsis English Ironwork of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries by : J Starkie Gardner
Download or read book English Ironwork of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries written by J Starkie Gardner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-19 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title comes with a new Introduction by Bethan Griffiths and Peter Milington. We are fortunate today that there is a far greater understanding and appreciation of our heritage, and how it should be cared for, than there was at the time J. Starkie Gardner's book was written. For the many people interested in and involved with the care and conservation of heritage ironwork "English Ironwork of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries" is an invaluable reference, not just for researching specific pieces but also for understanding the historic context of the ironwork of the period. It is also full of illustrations of once surviving examples in need of repair, and these photographs can give clues to their original form. Where ironwork has gone missing, the information can help to inform the design of replica work. There are few books on decorative historical ironwork and the small number there are highlight the fact that, overall, the subject of wrought ironwork has been insufficiently studied and is a rich field for cataloguing and research. Within the pages of Starkie Gardner's book are clues to the identification of further pieces of ironwork, particularly the many he did not cover, from which there is still much to learn. It is hoped that reissue of the book acts as an inspiration to those involved with the study, care and refurbishment of ironwork to continue the work he started in the recording and sharing of ironwork discoveries. However, the huge amount of surviving work of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries should not be forgotten as of this also too little is known; here again there is need for further cataloguing and research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive bibliography and exhibition chronology of the world's greatest museum of the decorative arts and design. The Victoria and Albert Museum, or South Kensington Museum as it used to be known, was founded by the British Government in 1852, out of the proceeds from the Great Exhibition of 1851. Like the Exhibition, it aimed to improve the expertise of designers, and the taste of the public, by exposing them to examples of good design from all countries and periods. 2,500 publications have to date been produced by, for, or in association with the V&A. The National Art Library, which is part of the Museum, has prepared this detailed catalogue, supplemented by a secondary list of 500 other books closely related to the V&A. The 1,500 exhibitions and displays recorded include those held in the main Museum and at its branches, the Bethnal Green Museum (now the National Museum of Childhood) and the Theatre Museum, Covent Garden, and additionally those it has organized at external venues, in Great Britain and abroad. The exhibitions and publications are fully cross-referenced, and there are name, title and subject indexes to the whole work, as well as an explanatory introduction.
