Comments on: The Cult of Beauty: The Aesthetic Movement 1860-1900 http://blog.visitlondon.com/2010/09/the-cult-of-beauty-the-aesthetic-movement-1860-1900/ Enjoy the very best of London Wed, 22 May 2013 13:30:38 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: Hubert http://blog.visitlondon.com/2010/09/the-cult-of-beauty-the-aesthetic-movement-1860-1900/#comment-26337 Hubert Mon, 14 Feb 2011 15:52:49 +0000 http://blog.visitlondon.com/?p=14560#comment-26337 A wonderful opportunity for the V&A to show the more remarkable 1876 woven SILK version of the Peacock feather pattern which has never been exhibited previously, although it was illustrated p.63 in the V&A’s 2004 exhibition catalogue ‘Shock of the Old: Christopher Dresser’s Design Revolution.’ Your blog picture of this pattern gives the date 1887 and Arthur Silver as the designer which is confusing as it contradicts the previous V&A publication and other references.

A lot is not known about this movement, I truly hope that this exhibiton will make way for a deeper knowledged of this movement; a knowledged that, perhaps, will show us modern artists to be fools.

Excause my english, gentlemen. All the best.
