Descripción

This hardcover book of 368 color pages with over 650 illustrations presents the furniture of Emile Gallé.
Emile Gallé was one of the leading figures of the Art Nouveau movement in France, and founder of the famous Ecole de Nancy.
A polymath and committed social activist, he was best known for his glasswork and faience.
Furniture became his third discipline after experimenting with the manufacture of wooden bases on which he could mount his glass vases. Gallé ardently followed the French tradition of furniture decoration known as marquetry.
His work is characterized by its meticulous decorative veneers, stained with subtle organic dyes; its panels inlaid with stunningly intricate country scenes and flowers.
This book outlines all of Gallé s major works of furniture, from the unique pieces that were designed for an exclusive clientele, to those displayed between 1889 and 1904 at the annual Paris Salons and two World Expositions. The recent emergence of many of his "objets de luxe" enables the reader to understand many of his pieces for the first time.
This book documents the history of Gallé's furniture production from his favorite motifs to the ways in which he used furniture design to express his social and political ideals. Duncan includes an encyclopedic range of models created in the Gallé Workshops both during and after his lifetime.
Beautifully illustrated, and containing translations of Gallé s Notes to the juries of the World Expositions, this stunning publication will leave the reader captivated by this decadent expression of the new art that changed the European aesthetic forever.
This beautifully illustrated book is a must for all lovers of Art Nouveau and Emile Gallé.
