Details
EUROPEAN DECORATIVE ARTS – Group of 10 books on French, British, Italian and Netherlandish interiors spanning five centuries, from Mrs. Wrightsman’s personal library. 20-21st century.

Ten volumes, various sizes. Original publisher’s bindings, some with original dust jackets.
Although her collection primarily concentrated on French decorative arts and painting, Mrs. Wrightsman’s correspondence with Renaissance art historian Bernard Berenson expanded the scope of her interests. Her tastes began to include Italian and Netherlandish objects at Berenson’s suggestion, as well as British objects through her friendships at Chatsworth and the Roxburghe Club.
