This book is a revised and
expanded edition of Decorative Arts: An
Illustrated Summary Catalogue of the Collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum

sconces from Versailles that once belonged to Marie Antoinette and an elaborate
upholstered bed from the collection of Karl Lagerfeld—it includes the results
of years of research. Designed for scholars, students, and devotees of the
decorative arts, this volume provides a comprehensive look at the Getty's fine
collection.
