2014: Special Issue "When Art History Meets Design History"

Articles 0083-0089
Guest-edited by Glenn Adamson and Anne Puetz

Despite this broad chronological sweep there is much in common among our authors' findings. Above all, and perhaps contrary to readers' expectations, each essay contests the notion that fine and decorative were truly opposed in their period.
