A beautiful collectors item. Alec Cobbe (b.1945) established his reputation as a conservator of Old Master paintings, before specializing in the redecoration and rearrangement of historic interiors as homes for masterpieces. His impressive list of clients ranges from H.R.H. The Prince of Wales to the Ritz Hotel. This beautifully illustrated catalogue marks a gift to the V&A of Alex Cobbe's career archive and showcases a selection of his designs in all their glory. Three essays introduce this engaging character, at home and at work; explore the subtle art of presenting great paintings in historic houses that are open to visitors; and introduce the related holdings of the V&A's Archive of Art and Design, where Alec Cobbe's designs will sit alongside those of other eminent interior designers and decorators.
