Decorative Arts

by Charissa Bremer-David, Peggy Fogelman (Primary Contributor), Peter Fusco (Primary Contributor)

Expanded to include acquisitions made by the Museum since 1984, this volume (originally published as Decorative Arts: A Handbook of the Collections of the J. Paul Getty Museum) includes concise entries, each of which is illustrated, on over 450 objects, most notably furniture, porcelain, and silver, ranging in date from the fifteenth through the nineteenth centuries. New to this edition are sections devoted to the Museum's collections of maiolica and glass. Of particular help to the scholar are the additions of an index of accession numbers and updated bibliographies.
