Drawing on the extensive collections of the Cooper-Hewitt Museum, the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Design, as well as from sources across America and Europe, the author documents the changing tastes in pattern and color preferences. Richly illustrated with 102 color plates and over 245 black and white photographs, this book is a stunning achievement.
