"Thomas Jeckyll ranks among the least understood and most tragic Aesthetic Movement figures in England. This illustrated book explores his innovative and brilliant designs in architecture, furniture, metalwork, and interiors and restores him to his deserved place among the architect/designers of his time. It is the definitive study of Jeckyll's life and work and presents his notable buildings and diverse examples of his decorative arts." "Susan Weber Soros and Catherine Arbuthnott examine Jeckyll's most important architectural commissions, among them the extravagant five-story Cambridge town house known as Rance's Folly. They also discuss the interiors he designed - some of the most captivating and evocative Aesthetic Movement rooms of his time - which included the famous Peacock Room created for shipping magnate Frederick Richards Leyland, and later decorated by James McNeill Whistler. The book also considers Jeckyll's remarkable furniture and metalwork designs, for which he is best-known today, including the Four Seasons gates, which were exhibited and highly praised at the Exhibition Universelle, Paris, in 1867 and the Weltaustellung, Vienna, in 1873"--Jacket.
