Note su "Art Nouveau: Lamps and Fixtures of James Hinks & Son": London, 1989; ril., pp. 188, 85 ill. col., cm. 28x30.
A major revolution in the lighting of houses occurred at the close of the nineteenth century. For 6.000 years interior lighting ha depended upon plant and animal oil, beeswax and tallow - fuels that produce a flame and are therefore a considerable fire hazard. The beginning of the twentieth century marked the development of electricity and gas, and the techonological growth of this period was matched by an intense interest in design. The Art Nouveau style swept through Europe and North America, changing views towards architecture, graphic design and interior decoration. Eager designers seized on the new lighting medium of electricity, liberating their imagination to produce innovative and exciting new fixtures and fittings. In this book, the lighting designer, manufacturer and retailer, Christopher Way, describes the developments of the period as illustrated in 85 fine colour prints of classic, whimsical and ingenious light fittings that include pendant lanterns, statue table lamps, desk lamps, lanterns and chandeliers. James Hinks and Son, founded in the 1840s, was a company specializing in the manufacture of brasswork and good quality, reasonably-priced lighting. It built its success upon the invention of Hink’s oil burners in 1865, which doubled the amount of light produced by a paraffin lamp, and were supplied throughout the world.
