The Principles of Ornament is a book written by James Ward in 1896. The book is an in-depth study of the history and principles of ornamentation, covering a wide range of topics such as the origins of ornamentation, the use of color in ornamentation, and the relationship between ornamentation and architecture. Ward explores the various styles of ornamentation that have been used throughout history, including ancient Egyptian, Greek, and Roman styles, as well as more modern styles such as the Gothic and Renaissance styles. The book also discusses the importance of ornamentation in different cultures and societies, and how it has been used to express religious, political, and social values. The Principles of Ornament is a comprehensive guide for anyone interested in the history and principles of ornamentation, and is a valuable resource for architects, designers, and art historians.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
