Longlisted for the Historians of British Art (HBA) Book Prize
2023Between 1750 and 1840, the home took on unprecedented social
and emotional significance. Focusing on the design, decoration, and
reception of a range of elite and middling class homes from this
period, Domestic Space in Britain, 1750-1840 demonstrates that the
material culture of domestic life was central to how this function
of the home was experienced, expressed, and understood at this
time. Examining craft production and collection, gift exchange and
written description, inheritance and loss, it carefully unpacks the
material processes that made the home a focus for contemporaries’
social and emotional lives.The first book on its subject, Domestic
Space in Britain, 1750-1840 employs methodologies from both art
history and material culture studies to examine previously
unpublished interiors, spaces, texts, images, and objects.
Utilising extensive archival research; visual, material, and
textual analysis; and histories of emotion, sociability, and
materiality, it sheds light on the decoration and reception of a
broad array of domestic spaces. In so doing, it writes a new
history of late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century domestic
space, establishing the materiality of the home as a crucial site
for identity formation, social interaction, and emotional
expression.
