Decoration & furniture of town houses : a series of Canto lectures delivered before the Society of arts, 1880
Robert W. Edis's 1881 London lecture series on interior decoration and furniture for town houses, published by C.K. Paul & Co. from lectures given to the Society of Arts in 1880, held at the Getty Research Institute. Its plates are engraved interior views of rooms and fittings, meant for architects and decorators of the period; a designer might draw on their dense patterned floors, wall panelling, and ornate furniture arrangements for historical period interiors.
