The Art of Home Furnishing and Decoration

The Art of Home Furnishing and Decoration

Frank Alvah Parsons, President of the New York School of Fine and Applied Art, is a leading American authority on interior decoration. He long since has amply demonstrated his wonderful faculty for turning his knowledge to the common good. We know of no man who, with voice and pen, has fought harder or more unceasingly for better taste, for richer, fuller home life. Mr. Parsons hardly can seem a stranger to the average reader of this book. Indeed, through his writings and lectures, he has become guide and counsellor and the personal friend of thousands of refined men and women, who have accepted the idea so well developed by Mr. Parsons in the following pages, that Man is what he lives in; that, generally speaking, man can be no greater or no less than the daily environment in which he works, thinks, and lives. We take great satisfaction and pleasure in announcing Mr. Parsons as the author of that section of this book which is entitled The Art of Home Furnishing and Decoration. It is written in Mr. Parsons typically intimate and forceful style, and every paragraph is replete with information and suggestions of great value. We are sure that this book will hold your interest from the first to the last word, and that in the end you will look on the possibilities of your home and your life within it in a fresh and considerably enlarged perspective. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
