Later recognised for his work in interior and furniture design,
Charles Locke Eastlake (1833 1906) had shown early promise in
making architectural drawings, and he was awarded a silver medal in
1854 by the Royal Academy. His passion for Gothic style developed
during a tour of Europe in the late 1850s, and his History of the
Gothic Revival (1872) is also reissued in this series. Focusing on
interior design, the present work was published in 1868 and
influenced the style of later nineteenth-century 'Modern Gothic'
furniture. It contains many illustrations of Eastlake's own designs
for furniture, tiles and wallpaper, including colour plates which
can be viewed online at www.cambridge.org/9781108075343. The book
moves from the street into the home and then from room to room,
finishing with chapters on crockery, cutlery, glassware, and dress
and jewellery. It gives a fascinating insight into the late
Victorian taste for the medieval, also fostered by the Arts and
Crafts movement."
