Description
“We specialize in rare and antiquarian books concerning architecture and architectural history up to the mid nineteenth century. We stock books on interior decoration and ornament, landscape and garden design, festival and theatre architecture, as well as books on the fine arts and aesthetics. We also offer books documenting the emergence of museums from the development of private cabinets of curiosities, to princely collections of fine art and, finally, national museums.
The history of archaeology, embracing Renaissance interest in numismatics and sculpture, investigations by early antiquaries in Britain and Europe, excavations by Grand Tour connoisseurs and dealers in antiquities, and the scientific approach to archaeology in the nineteenth century, is another area of interest.”
