The World of Forgotten Things
49.99 €
This book is an attempt to systematize information about how people lived in the past, what they ate, how they dressed, what they used in everyday life, about the objects invented by mankind for many centuries, but "forgotten" because they were replaced by more perfect ones, or put away in chests for lack of use. Today few people know about such items as kopoushka, kosnik, carne de bal, trembles, pandora, bratina, but once they were an integral part of people's daily life. Many of these objects are preserved on the paintings of old masters, in antique shops and markets, in the collections of museums and collectors.
The book uses images of exhibits from the collection of fashion historian Alexander Vasiliev.
