Book Description
"Works of art in their own right, frames play an essential and often overlooked role in complementing the artworks they support. The craft and history of European frames is a fascinating subject, and this volume provides a guide to the frame maker's art from the thirteenth to the nineteenth century." "This handbook features more than two hundred entries - arranged alphabetically from abacus to whiting - that concisely explain the materials and methods involved in the creation of frames. Illustrated with examples from the collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum, this reference tool is invaluable not only to professionals and collectors but also to anyone wishing to increase his or her understanding and enjoyment of frames." --Book Jacket.
