About This Item
Milwaukee: Chipstone Foundation, 2004. Hardcover. VG/VG. Red cloth and red/yellow paper/boards; color illustrated end pages; xxxiv, 267 pp. 376 color illustrated throughout. Features more than 200 of the most ornamental and emotionally engaging artifacts ever produced in this country, including furniture, textiles, costume, ceramics, glass, metals, paintings and prints. Scholars in the field have long categorized these colorful and playful artifacts as "folk," but during the period they were actually called "Fancy" and were mainstream designs for the 19th century homes of the middle class. Catalogue from the exhibition of April to June 2004 in Milwaukee and at the Peabody Essex Museum and the Maryland Historical Society.
