"For more than two centuries, Thomas Chippendale has been synonymous with beautifully made furniture in a variety of styles-- Rococo, Chinese, Gothic and neo-Classical. Bork in Yorkshire in 1718, Chippendale rose to fame because of his revolutionary design book, The Gentleman and Cabine Maker's Director, published in 1754. That same year he set up his famous workshop in St. Martin's Lane, creating some of the most magnificent furniture ever made in Britain. This beautifully illustrated history focuses on Britain's most renowned furniture make and designer, and the 'Chippendale style' that became popular throughout the British Isles, Europe, and North America after his death in 1779. Today, his valuable works take pride of place in many collection, some of which are open to the public, including those at Harewood House and Nostell Priory."--back cover.
