Description
Full title: Vienna Moderne 1898-1918 Early Encounter b/w Taste & Utility.
Large, 96 page, book for the exhibit held at a couple of Museums but first at the Smithsonian where this book was obtained.
The book is complete but the binding method is such that a number of pages are loose, but not torn, from the pressure only binding method. It currently effects roughly 6 leaves and you might miss it if not for feeling it as your flip through the book.
The showing was November 28, 1978 to Sunday, February 4, 1979 and was the first major exhibition of Viennese work from this period to be installed anywhere in the United States.
It included furniture, glassware, ceramics, metalwork, textiles, graphic design, and photographs of interiors and many pictures are included in the guide itself.
