Some works of art in the possession of George A. Cooper at 26 Grosvenor Square / Francis Bennett-Goldney, F.S.A

Bennett-Goldney, Francis · 1903 · London : J. M. Dent & Co. · 54 pictures

A 1903 London catalogue by Francis Bennett-Goldney, published by J. M. Dent & Co., recording art objects in the private collection of George A. Cooper at 26 Grosvenor Square for collectors and connoisseurs. Its photographs show French-style decorative objects in sepia halftone: a marquetry cabinet with porcelain plaques, a painted and gilt urn with a lid, a classical campana-form vase with caryatid handles, and a covered vase with a painted medallion. A designer might take ornate neoclassical motifs such as swags, bows, caryatids, and medallion scenes as ornament sources.
