Hardcover. Condición: Good. The English farmhouse evolved at an unhurried pace. Some, held in trust by generations of the same farming family, represent the finest examples of vernacular architecture; others have fallen victim to the ravages of time and place or have been made vulnerable by changes in modern farming. This is an illustrated record of their history and development. It describes the diversity of regional styles, discusses the influences that brought them about and notes how local characteristics are reflected in the architecture of these working buildings.

Hardcover. Condición: Good. First Edition. Ndebele - A People & Their Art is a beautifully illustrated study of the Ndebele and their distinctive art culture. Exceptional photography and insightful text have combined to make this a fascinating and visually exciting work that will have great appeal for all those with an interest in the tribal cultures of southern Africa and of the Ndebele in particular.Endowed with a rich creativity, Ndebele women have developed an art culture of remarkable ingenuity and vitality which has established their tribal grouping as Africa's artist nation. In their beadwork and in the large murals that cover the walls of their traditional mud dwellings - many of which are unusually innovative in their planning and construction - the Ndebele women have created bold, often symbolic, designs and images that are at one ancient and modern in their simplicity, colour and mode of representation. The traditional dress of Ndebele women is equally striking and dramatic, as are their beadwork and adornments.But the artistic achievements of the Ndebele are not the sole focus of the work. Equal emphasis is placed on an understanding of the historical, social and political background against which Ndebele art emerged and has flourished.

Hardcover. Condición: Good. First Edition. The art of Jane Wooster Scott speaks to all generations of living Americans, and to generations yet unborn, who savor our nation's rich heritage in all its colors and manifestations.Wooster Scott, a Philadelphia native, has traveled the length and breadth of the United States recording an era that sets forth the standards and values of this country. Combining a keen eye for beauty, humor and the zestful energy of this youthful colossus of the Western Hemisphere, Wooster Scott captures the essence of the American people, their traditions and institutions.Her naif art brings to life the broad American landscape, dotted as it is with cities, towns and villages unique to our culture, along with farms, factories and waterfronts that are singularly New World. She offers us a perfect portrait of ourselves and our forefathers and a spark of hope for how we will be in the centuries ahead.As a painter, Wooster Scott has succeeded in advancing the intricate discipline of naif art to its highest plane, popularizing primitive American painting in Europe, Asia and other parts of the world. She has been hailed by critics nationwide, but the truest test of the artist's worth is her popularity among collectors of her original canvases and countless thousands who treasure her lithographs and serigraphs.Some 175 paintings represented here in An American Jubilee, The Art of Jane Wooster Scott reflect twenty years of dedication to preserving the priceless panoply of a nation unlike any other in the history of mankind in which the dignity of man has blossomed as never before.
