12 Printable Art Images  

Albert-Charles-Auguste Racinet (1825–1893), himself an accomplished artist, is best known today for publishing the major pictorial work on the history of design. L'Ornement Polychrome (color ornament) is a visual record in 100 plates of the decorative arts from antiquity to the eighteenth century. The work was such a huge success that in 1885–7 Racinet brought out a second series, this time of 120 plates, updated to include designs of the nineteenth century as well. The imagery presented in the accompanying 12 plates, taken from the 1888 edition of the first series, is drawn from a wide array of various mediums, including woodwork, metalwork, architecture, textiles, painting, and pottery, and from cultures all over the world.
