Valentino Brosio - Mobili italiani dell’Ottocento


Valentino Brosio. Mobili italiani dell'Ottocento.
Milan: Antonio Vallardi Editore, n.d.
(In copertina: Sala del Palazzo Reale a Torino.)

The book shows how diverse and qualitatively different Italian furniture production was in the 19th century. It categorises these developments from Empire, Neoclassicism, Louis Philippe to the floral and bizarre forms of Liberty, in German: Jugendstil, in terms of art history. The publication thus serves as a fundamental introduction to the history of forms and styles of the Italian Ottocento.
