PHILLIPS, ANTHONY AND JEANNE SLOANE

Antiquity Revisited: English and French Silver Gilt from the Collection of Audrey Love

London: Christie's Inc, 1997. Softcover. ISBN: 0903432501. Paperback. Pages are clean and tight; this is a NEW book. Black front and rear endpapers. Illustrated with dozens of color and b/w photos. This is the auction catalog for the collection of Audrey Love. "The Love Collection provides a unique opportunity to study and compare the magnificent silver-gilt objects made in England and France in the early 19th century. The emphasis of the collection on the silver of the Napoleonic and Regency periods invites an examination of the two countries' related yet distinctive styles...Given the enduring popularity of silver of this period, which in terms of Imperial and Regal splendour has surely never been surpassed, it is remakable how little has been written on the similarities and differences between the two...Even when English and French silversmiths used the same design sources, the pieces of silver produced in the two countries exhibit more differences than similarities..." Excellent reference source for Regency England and Napoleonic France decorative arts/silver. Oversized. ; Photographs; 8 1/2 x 11; 150 pages; Very slight rubbing.. New .
