The Practical Decorator and Ornamentist, published in 1892 by George A. and Maurice A. Audsley, and here republished in a newly prepared edition, was in its day one of the best-known collections of ornamental designs in large color plates. In contrast to previous editions of the Audsleys' pattern books, this presentation also provides a commentary based on the Audsleys' own explanatory text, thereby offering hints on how to use each design, on its style, and on possible color schemes. The text appears in parallel columns of English, German, and French, and an appendix gives detailed practical instruction on how to transfer and execute the designs.
