A richly illustrated source book, detailing materials and methods of manufacture, "Framing the Nineteenth Century" is a select catalogue of frame makers and frames from the early 19th century to the early 20th century. For a long time, the frames of the 19th century were seen as poor imitations of the craftsmanship of earlier centuries, but in this book frames are celebrated for their unique qualities. Designed as a reference for professional frame makers, restorers and conservators, the book will be of equal interest to art collectors and anyone interested in the rich and diverse world of 19th-century design and manufacturing. "Framing the Nineteenth Century" focuses on English, European and Australian frame makers and through detailed illustrations, profiles of frame sections, dimensions and notes on manufacture and materials, is both a survey and a pattern book for the period. It includes a cross-reference index to artists.

This book has detail, and a lot of photos of the most beautiful frames used in 19th century. It's mostly from framing shops, who would like to re-create, the time tested frames. I am a fine art painter and wanted to have reference to frames I could consider for my art, and was searching for LONG time, for a book like this. Now I have a reference for frame shops, to just show - this is what I want and be done with it. Among all art books, this is my "only" framing book! Would fully recommend to buy it if you need detailed reference, where they provide "width" of each frame with the profile, and detailed photo of the frame, than where it was first used and who was the framer including detailed description.
