Eclestism And The Baroque Revival In The Decoravite Arts In Malta
The context for Abramo Gatt (1863-1944)
This book, the second volume in the scholarly series Studies in Central Mediterranean Decorative Arts, is dedicated to one of the most remarkably rich episodes in the extraordinary and profuse story of the decorative arts in Malta: the years straddling the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This book discusses the prevalence of Eclecticism and Baroque Revival currents in the decorative arts in the islands of Malta and Gozo during the height of British colonial domination, and celebrates the islands’ most gifted native designer of the fin-de-siècle, Abramo Gatt (1863-1944), on the eightieth anniversary of his death.
