It encompassed everything from architecture to town planning  metalwork and embroidery  in places as diverse as California and Budapest. Born of thinkers and practitioners in Victorian England its ideological currents reflect the eras most pressing social  political and artistic concerns. Early British Arts and Crafts practitioners campaigned for a revival of old craft techniques  for the elevation of the applied arts and for honesty in design. These aims were quickly picked up and developed across Europe and the United States  with many national variants soon emerging. In this fascinating and beautifully illustrated introduction to the subject  Rosalind Blakesley explores the common ideas that give cohesion to this wide and stylistically varied movement.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45279523995701,"sku":"ByrdShop_0714849677","price":107.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780714849676.jpg?v=1780601301","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-arts-and-crafts-movement-9780714849676","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
