Indianapolis, IN: Indianapolis Museum of Art. Near Fine with no dust jacket. 1994. Stiff wraps. 3/8" scratch and price sticker to rear cover.; Brandt (Rembrandt) Steele (1870-1965) was an artistic polymath who applied his design talents in and around Indianapolis, IN. Returning from his late 19th Century studies in France and Germany, Steele brought the European Art Nouveau and Arts and Crafts aesthetics to his work in architecture, interior design, art glass windows, pottery, architectural terra cotta, cemetery monuments, frescos, metalwork, and furniture. Son of famed Hoosier Group painter T. C. (Theodore Clement) Steele, Brandt forged his own style in the decorative arts and did not follow the stylistic path of his father. With Notes on the text, an illustrated exhibition catalog, and Steel's life chronology. Color photographs of Steele's various works. Printed in Indianapolis, IN by Hilltop Press, which I can personally attest was not located on a hilltop. Bound in color illustrated wraps showing a portion of Steele's fireplace surround of polychrome enameled tiles.
