Art Deco Style

Famous quotes containing the words art and/or style:

“If art has a purpose, it is to interpret life, reproduce it in fresh visions.”
—Catherine Drinker Bowen (1897–1973)

“As we approached the log house,... the projecting ends of the logs lapping over each other irregularly several feet at the corners gave it a very rich and picturesque look, far removed from the meanness of weather-boards. It was a very spacious, low building, about eighty feet long, with many large apartments ... a style of architecture not described by Vitruvius, I suspect, though possibly hinted at in the biography of Orpheus.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
