Serena, Raffaella:
Animal Embroideries and Patterns from 19th century Vienna ( Nowotny Collection )
Publisher: Woodbridge, Antique Collectors Club, 2002.
208pp with 221 colour plates and 24 technical drawings. The discovery of the Nowotny collection in Vienna brings us a collection that is unique both in quality and quantity of the patterns. It is also a comprehensive record of some of the most refined and elegant creations of the nineteenth century. In the history of embroidery, the nineteenth century occupies a very special place. Not only did it coincide with the most popular period in this time-honoured art but it also happened to be the century in which embroidery gave full expression to the ideal of femininity.This book perfectly compliments Embroideries and Patterns of Nineteenth Century Vienna, Serena’s first publication concerning the Nowotny Collection. Like its counterpart, Animal Embroideries and Patterns surveys samplers, motifs and decorative patterns, but focuses solely on animal patterns. The embroideries are perfectly reproduced in 221 flawless colour photographs and are accompanied by 24 technical drawings. Practical advice is offered which allows any keen embroidery enthusiast to reproduce some of the more spectacular designs. Fine cond : fine cond d/w. 11 1/2 x 9 1/4 inches

Serena, Raffaella:
Embroideries and Patterns of Nineteenth Century Vienna ( Embroideries & Patterns from Nineteenth Century Vienna from the Nowotny Collection )
Publisher: Woodbridge, Antique Collectors Club, 1998.
208pp with 200 colour plates and 35 line drawings. The recent discovery of the Nowotny collection in Vienna has revealed an outstanding collection which is unique both in the quantity of patterns which have come to light as well as in their extraordinary quality. Such a collection provides a significant history in itself of some of the most refined and elegant creations of the nineteenth century. This is the first book devoted entirely to the petit-point of Vienna of this era. Raffaella Serena surveys samplers, motifs, and decorative patterns such as garlands, flowers, animals and landscapes. The collection are integrated with other examples drawn from different sources in order to give a fuller and more complete historical and stylistic account of the Biedermeier period which was then at the peak of its influence. The patterns are considered in the light of the artistic and social milieux which gave them their unique character.In addition to the outstanding colour photographs, new black and white patterns based on the original embroideries will enable today’s needlework practitioners to copy these historic designs.Raffaella Serena brings to her subject an infectious enthusiasm for this frequently undervalued but fascinating branch of the decorative arts..
