SUMMARY
Chinoiserie -- the taste for decoration and architecture based on Chinese design -- has its origins in the age-old fantasy of 'Cathay', the mysterious land of the East. This beautifully illustrated book shows the development of the style from its very beginnings, demonstrating its continuous influence in all of the decorative arts. With sumptuous photography showing all aspects of chinoiserie, the book clarifies the way in which the exotis East was incorporated into Western taste in a way that is relevant to all those involved in interior decor today.Jacobson, Dawn is the author of 'Chinoiserie', published 1993 under ISBN 9780714828831 and ISBN 0714828831.
