October, 1993
Creative Hands and A Special Vision of the Past
Contributing Editor Tricia Foley
Pride & Dignity
"The Victorians were determined not to be forgotten. They built their houses sturdy, and every implement of everyday life, from candlesticks to opera glasses, mirrored their passion for ornamentation. Their symbols of design may no longer be in our lexicon, but the abundance of their legacy continues to astonish and captivate. In this issue, we discover the pride and dignity of our Victorian forebears and bring along the best they have left us."
