This richly illustrated catalogue volume represents an important contribution to comparative Biedermeier research. Edited by Heidrun Zinnkann, the work sheds light on the stylistic differences and similarities of Biedermeier furniture in Germany, Austria, Hungary, Denmark and Scandinavia in the period 1815-1835.

The study is based on contributions by renowned specialist authors and is intended as an interdisciplinary reference work that combines historical, artisanal and cultural-historical perspectives. Particular emphasis is placed on stylistic differentiation based on specific furniture types and decorative styles in northern and southern Germany as well as western, eastern and central Europe.
