Nicholas Penny conveys his interest in the history of frames, the design and techniques of frame-making, what frames do for paintings, and the part they play in the decoration and often the architecture of an interior. The emphasis is on the changing function and varied purpose of frames as well as the different styles of ornament, materials, finishes, and techniques used. This \u003ci\u003eCloser Look\u003c\/i\u003e guide is illustrated by frames from the National Gallery's magnificent collection. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePublished by National Gallery Company\/Distributed by Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicholas Penny\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1857094409\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781857094404\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e National Gallery London\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/12\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.70w x 0.40d","brand":"Nicholas Penny","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44201957097727,"sku":"9781857094404","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f982f072-a96b-44bf-b795-724b7618b7ab.jpg?v=1691492403","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-closer-look-nicholas-penny-9781857094404","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
