Book Synopsis The Grammar of Ornament by : Owen Jones
Download or read book The Grammar of Ornament written by Owen Jones and published by Girard & Stewart. This book was released on 2015-09-10 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This beautiful, highly influential book, long a classic in its field, remains today one of the most comprehensive and best-organized presentations of historic ornamental design. The original 100 color plates, meticulously reproduced here from the rare original folio edition, present a dazzling spectrum of copyright-free design motifs from both ancient and modern cultures. The Grammar of Ornament features designs from around the world: the West to the Far East and many cultures in between. Graphic and fine artists will find nearly three thousand designs rendered in fine detail from a variety of sources: Greek and Roman borders and mosaics Celtic designs taken from manuscripts Motifs from medieval paintings and stained glass Floral patterns from Chinese porcelain, wood, and fabrics Illuminated script from the Koran Ornamentation from Turkish mosques and tombs Moorish designs from the Alhambra Connoisseurs of art and design will find the book's rich display of decorative motifs an endless source of contemplative pleasures. The work of the celebrated English designer and architect Owen Jones, The Grammar of Ornament, initially published in 1856, was the first book to present a global and historical range of ornament in color, the first to display "primitive" art for its design content, and among the first to suggest nature as a basic design source. Widely used and circulated, this prophetic work ushered in a major change in Western aesthetics and heralded the move towards nonrepresentational art. Its value as a beautifully organized and produced pictorial museum of historic ornamental design remains unsurpassed.

Book Synopsis Historic Ornament by : C. B. Griesbach
Download or read book Historic Ornament written by C. B. Griesbach and published by Courier Dover Publications. This book was released on 1975 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 900 illustrations in this book comprise a vast collection of decorative motifs ranging in origin from the ancient world to the West on the verge of the industrial age. The designs and motifs assembled here come from metalwork, architectural reliefs, bookbinding, statuary, inlay work, tile design, fabric and furniture design and other sources. They show how these various ideas were carried out and changed over history; they also furnish an extraordinary sourcebook for contemporary designers and commercial artists. Beginning with Egyptian capitals and friezes, pottery designs and architectural ornaments of ancient Greece, this volume surveys the precursors and all major styles of European design through the 18th century, with great attention to national differences in style as these emerged and flourished. Dozens of overall designs and borders are included along with full illustrations of gates and latches, chalices, chairs, utensils, grillwork, sculpture, wall panels and ceilings, bowls, keys, candlesticks, and fountains rendered in floral patterns, geometrics, scrollwork, bacchanals, religious and heraldic symbols, with real and fantastic beasts, lattices and more. The original captions have been translated into English for this edition. While there are several other books that are roughly comparable as compendiums of historical ornament, this work offers perhaps the best renderings, both for historical accuracy and sharpness and clarity of technique. Students of the history of architecture and design will find here a valuable survey and reference for their work. Commercial artists, advertisers, illustrators, decorators, and craftsmen will find both numerous design ideas to take off from and hundreds of items to take whole -- classical columns, Italian Renaissance lion's heads and fountains -- for use in graphics assignments and any number of designs. - Back cover.
