A book of the Tile club
Not on view
This deluxe artists’ book reveals the seriousness with which members of the Tile Club approached their cultural practice. An influential association of leading late nineteenth-century painters, sculptors, illustrators, writers, architects, and designers, the Club expressed its decorative interests in a rhetoric of playful camaraderie. In publications such as this, members detailed their genteel bohemianism and artistic lifestyles, suggesting the importance that professional self-promotion held for the group. This book represents the last major creative collaboration of the Club.
