What is Victorian Designs for the Home about?

"During the years of Victoria's reign (1837-1901) a wealth of diverse and innovative design was produced, characterised by conflicting desires for tradition and progress. This book reveals the rich variety of styles which emerged, such as revivals of Gothic and Rococo, a new fascination with the East in Japonisme, and the appearance of Art Nouveau and the Arts and Crafts Movement. Elaborate designs for furniture by A.W.N. Pugin and William Burges, for example, or ceramics and silver by William de Morgan and Philip Webb, are seen alongside actual pieces as they were eventually created."
