Description: | A design for a book cover by the Silver Studio for the publishers Blackie & Son Ltd. in 1897. The book is 'The Lost Dog' by Ascott R. Hope and the designer was possibly Harry Napper. The design incorporates an upper frieze of birds and a lower frieze of dogs with formalised leaf formations, in pale blue and orange/yellow, on a navy ground. Although it was initially believed that this design had not been used commercially by Blackie, it has recently been found to have been used for the cover of a book entitled 'Jock And His Friend' by Cora Langton. MoDA has this book in their collection (BADDA 4697). | Format: | books | License: | http://www.moda.mdx.ac.uk/terms-and-conditions | Rights holder: | Museum of Domestic Design & Architecture, Middlesex University | Subjects: | Art Nouveau | Temporal: | 1897 | Source: | Museum of Domestic Design & Architecture | Creator: | Blackie, London | Identifier: | SD1085 | Format: | books | Go to resource |
