VICTORIANA covers every aspect of Victorian art, pastimes and trinkets that would interest the collector, including both the important changes in serious taste that took place between the end of the Regency and Art Nouveau, and all those examples of the minor arts like Valentine cards and tinsel pictures, that are, perhaps, more redolent of their epoch than the more ambitious works. The text is accompanied by many pages of photographs, from a wide variety of sources, which, together with detailed captions, show the collector precisely what he should look out for.
