A fascinating collection of Viennese silver and metal objects presented in a beautifully designed volume featuring over 500 illustrations. This sumptuously illustrated volume presents over 180 outstanding Viennese silver objects representing the period from Neoclassicism to the Wiener Werkst? tte. Comparing early eighteenth-century works with examples of twentieth-century design and architecture, it offers a fascinating look at Vienna's contribution to the development of modern decorative arts. nnThe authors demonstrate how the roots of modern design go back further than is generally assumed.
