EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite metalwork and woodcarving craftsmanship of France and Germany in 1898. The creator of this remarkable piece remains unknown, but their talent is undeniable. Divided into two sections, the print features a range of stunning table mountings from the Louis XIV period in the Royal Bavarian Museum, Munich (c1643-1715), as well as various French woodcarvings. Figures 1 to 7 highlight intricate table mountings that once adorned royal tables during the reign of Louis XIV. These ornate pieces reflect the opulence and grandeur characteristic of the Baroque era. Figures 8 to 12 showcase beautiful French woodcarvings, with Figure 11 specifically capturing a section from the Choirstalls of Notre Dame in Paris. The print comes from "The Historic Styles of Ornament" translated by H. Dolmetsch from German literature. Published by B. T. Batford in London in 1898, this book serves as a testament to historical decorative arts. Through this image, we are transported back to an era where religious symbolism intertwined with artistic expression flourished within cathedrals and churches across Europe. Cherubs, angels, floral patterns, and stylized designs dominate these masterpieces. This print offers a glimpse into centuries-old interior design concepts while celebrating both German and French cultural heritage through metalwork and woodcarving techniques passed down through generations.
