Gustav Stickley

This is a reprint of a 2003 book. Gustav Stickley (1858-1942)was one of the most influential figures of the Arts and Crafts Movement--not just for the furniture he designed but also for the textiles, metalwork, lamps, and other items that emanated from his workshop under his aesthetic and entrepreneurial direction. A freelance expert on the subject, Cathers offers a thoroughly researched, comprehensive, and authoritative account of Stickley's life and work. The volume measures 10x11.25", affording generous display of the photos supporting the narrative. Annotation 穢2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
