127 Authentic Art Deco Designs,
By Carol Goldsmith (Chicago IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 127 Authentic Art Deco Patterns in Full Color (Paperback)
This book represents early Art Deco Designs, perhaps even late Art Nouveau Designs. The strikingly remarkable feature is the color combinations, which show the early flavor of the period. These designs were taken from two portfolios of 1920's artists. There is a full range of figures from antalope and mountian lion to flowers and people. Some of which are highly intricate and ornate, while others verge on the primative. As a source book for a decorative artist (me), it gives subject and theme for any period compositions which can be mounted. The art is highly styled and ornate, giving a fresh look to the Art Deco Period.

This review is from: 127 Authentic Art Deco Patterns in Full Color (Paperback)
This is an excellent selection of colorful graphic patterns in the deco genre, and should be a useful and inspiring resource to designers, students, and afficianados.

Great variety,
By Nina Sherron "runs deep" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: 127 Authentic Art Deco Patterns in Full Color (Paperback)
This book is great for giving an all around idea of art deco textile, and art detail. However, I would have liked more information on the designers, years these were popular, the artists, etc.
