520 $a"This volume translates Joseph Friedrich von Racknitz's Presentation and History of the Taste of the Leading Nations in Relation to the Interior Decoration of Rooms and to Architecture, a rare and little-known treatise that traces an early global history of design and ornament"--Provided by publisher.
520 $a"Baron Joseph Friedrich zu Racknitz's pioneering Presentation and History of the Taste of the Leading Nations in Relation to the Interior Decoration of Rooms and to Architecture (Darstellung und Geschichte des Geschmacks der vorzüglichsten Völker in Beziehung auf die innere Auszierung der Zimmer und auf die Baukunst) is little known today. Racknitz, a German aristocrat, traced an early global history of design and ornament through discussions of what he distinguished as twenty-four essential regional historical tastes. He included those of a diverse group of ancient classical civilizations, European nations and peoples, Eastern civilizations, and more exotic reaches of the world. This sensitive and informed translation also includes reproductions of the original color plates and essays on Racknitz's biography, his publication, and the German Enlightenment context, making this an essential volume for studying eighteenth- and nineteenth-century architecture, decorative arts, and garden design."--from Publisher
