[PU: Telfair Museum of Art.], 196 p.: Ill. Paperback. Lediglich die Broschur ist leicht bestoßen. Sonst aber ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar/ Only the brochure is slightly bumped. But otherwise a good and clean copy. - The significance of Classical Savannah: Fine and Decorative Arts 1800-1840 stretches far beyond the boundaries of the beautiful city which it chronicles. The exhibition and catalogue record the impact of the Classical Revival in the South and thus contribute to national, regional, and local history. Recent scholarship on neoclassicism in America has focused on the Northeastern United States where many classically inspired goods were manufactured. Classical Savannah documents the influence of these products on a thriving Southern port which imported most of its fine consumables. The origins of these goods reveal fascinating links between Savannah and the rest of the world and hint at parallel situations in other Southern ports.
