This book explores the beginnings of the interior design profession
in nineteenth-century France. Drawing on a wealth of visual
sources, from collecting and advice manuals to pattern books and
department store catalogues, it demonstrates how new forms of print
media were used to 'sell' the idea of the unified interior as a
total work of art, enabling the profession of interior designer to
take shape. In observing the dependence of the trades on the
artistic and public visual appeal of their work, Interior
decorating in nineteenth-century France establishes crucial links
between the fields of art history, material and visual culture, and
design history. -- .
