Excerpt from Period Decoration The In uence of Environment is as potent as the In uence of Personality. Decorative art is the application of decoration, not as a sep arate and distinct creation like the making of a painting or a piece of statuary, but as an accessory, fulfilling always a definite purpose.

Excerpt from Interior Decoration: Its Principles and Practice These and other misconceptions are the reasons for this book. It is modestly hoped that it may be of service to somebody in pointing out what a house is really for and what it should express. It is designed also to make clear the essential qualities which are the life and soul of each of the decorative periods in history.

Excerpt from The Period Furniture Handbook What we need, in order to form an accurate con ception of the style of furniture of any particular period, is facts, and not an expression of a writer's personal feeling, either in preference for any par ticular style or detestation of it. Unhappily the ability to enjoy what is delightful in every period is not common. The critic who knows everything there is to be known about every one of the period styles is not always as wise a guide as one who has that God-given ability to select unerringly what is best in each. There is not a single one of the period styles which has not some excellent examples of furniture design and craftsman ship to its credit. To discredit the Baroque or the Rococo, the Empire or the Victorian in order to exalt the Gothic or the Renaissance is silly. Each incorporates its own ideas of suitability, dignity, decoration, and comfort. The pomp and state of the rectangular types in Europe and America prior to the 18th Century, all count for nothing when you drop at nightfall into your easy-chair, if it is easy. And can you be grateful enough for that welcome over-stuffing of seat, and back, and arms which enfolds you with a restfulness achieved only in the Victorian era!
