Biedermeiers Glück und Ende - Die gestörte Idylle 1815–1848


Biedermeier's happiness and end. The disturbed idyll 1815-1848
Munich: Hugendubel
ISBN 3-88034-310-1

This comprehensive catalogue sheds light on the Biedermeier era in all its social, political and cultural breadth. The volume combines art-historical essays, socio-historical analyses and a richly illustrated catalogue section with systematic classification by object genre. Furniture, textiles, porcelain, glass and other home accessories are analysed not only formally, but also in the context of bourgeois life.

With its detailed catalogue section, numerous object illustrations, technical descriptions and a list of works and artists, this publication of over 750 pages provides a good basis for the academic study of the Biedermeier period, not only in furniture making.
