Description: Title: The Sense of Order: A Study in the Psychology of Decorative Art Author: Gombrich, Leonie Publisher: Phaidon Press Binding: Paperback Pages: 412 Dimensions: 10.60h x 8.00w x 1.10d Product Weight: 2.1 lbs. Language: English ISBN: 9780714822594 The Sense of Order provides a comprehensive survey of the rich history and theory of decorative art. The universal human impulse to seek order and rhythm in space and time can be seen in an astonishing range of human activities: children's play, poetry, dance, music and architecture, as well as art. Its persistent prevalence in our every activity calls for a rigorous explanation of this fascinating phenomenon in terms of our biological heritage. Professor Gombrich in this tome, which he himself regarded as his most original work, offers precisely this. His characteristic erudition and expertise signify his writings here as no less than revolutionary in our perception of art and, in turn, of our very selves. A pleasure to read, this pivotal book is as accessible as it is sophisticated, and as engaging as it is idiosyncratic.
