Excellent book
It came well packaged and on time. The book itself is packed with designs/patterns that is very much useful in my surface pattern creation. This book is worth every penny spent.

コスパ抜群ですよ
Ornament(装飾)の世界ということで、壁画、タペストリー、絨毯など室内装飾の図案を豊富に収録した本です。この本は普及版なのでA5サイズ、ちょっと小さくて残念ですが、800ページ強の分厚さはそんな欠点も補ってくれます。世界各地の図柄を紹介していますが、主要パートは18世紀までのヨーロッパの装飾柄です。フルカラーの図と英語・ドイツ語・フランス語の解説付き。 絵のサイズが小さいとか思うところはありますが、この値段でこの情報量ならおつりがくるでしょう。デザインに興味のある方はもちろん、模様の資料としても使えると思います。なお、同じ内容で大型本のバージョンもありますので、大画面で見たい方はそちらをどうぞ。
