Art of Family: Genealogical Artifacts in New England
"In this lavishly illustrated
volume, which features over 200 halftones and sixteen color plates from public
and private collections, distinguished experts in history, art, and genealogy
explore the important but often overlooked relationship between material culture
and family history in New England during the seventeenth, eighteenth, and
nineteenth centuries. The contributors examine a broad range of family record
artifacts, including genealogical samplers, mourning embroideries, pen-and-ink
family registers, gravestones, heraldica, textiles, furniture, silver, and
portraiture. An indispensable resource on the world of decorative arts and its
significance in preserving 'family identity,' this beautiful work provides much
valuable information and research clues for modern-day genealogists."
