In illustration of the treatment of Interiors of Houses, many specimens of Panelling, Screens, Doorways, Chimney-pieces, Ceilings, Staircases, Window-glass, etc., are given. A chapter is devoted to John Thorpe's drawings, and to the light which they throw upon the designing of houses of the period.

Extract from an Article by Mr. Lewis F. Day in the "Art Journal."—"'Decorative Flower Studies' go very far indeed towards satisfying at once the Decorator, Designer, or Student who wants trustworthy data upon which to found his work, and the lover of nature who delights to see deft and delicate rendering of the thing he knows. The author is duly regardful of the designer's wants, and supplements the coloured pages by outline drawings of details likely to be of use to him.... The author's drawing is always delicate, her treatment of the flower is tasteful, and she preserves the refinement of natural form. In colour she is content with a few flat tints, but the drawing, firm and sure if at times a trifle too thin in line, is instinct with life."
