This book attempts to document one of the most important areas of Art Nouveau and so to take stock of those aspects of the movement which will still be worth knowing and preserving even after Art Nouveau has passed through its present fashionable phase. The book also takes note of the research which has been done on the subject. -- Preface.This superbly presented book, itself a classic tribute to the printer's craft, gives a synopsis of European work on a scale never previously attempted. The result of an exhibition at the Berlin Festival in 1966, it was immediately hailed as a magnificent work of both scholarship and craftmanship.
