Decorative plasterwork was created by skilled craftsmen, and for
over four hundred years it has been an essential part of the
interior decoration of the British country house. In this detailed
and comprehensive study, Geoffrey Beard has created a book that
will delight the eye and inform the interested reader. For those
who have sometimes been puzzled by the complexities of plaster
decoration it will be a most useful work of reference on a
fascinating art form, about which no book has been published for
nearly fifty years. After discussing the part that patrons played
in commissioning and financing these beautiful decorations, a
useful chapter is devoted to materials and methods of work and here
the author describes the ingredients of good plaster; he has
studied the work of present-day English plasterers and Swiss
stucco-restorers in order to establish precisely how the materials
of plaster and stucco were composed and used.
