INTRODUCTION.

ightlv understood, the conformation of an

ornament

should be in keeping with the form and structure


in comand should never stifle or conceal it. As varied and as manysided as it may ie, still, the Art of ornamentation is never an arbitrary one; besides depending on the form of the object, it is influenced also by the nature of the material of which the same is made, as well as by the style or manner in which natural objects are reproduced in ornamentation by different peoples at different times. The

The oldest and style. script. 12 th century. (Doimetsch.) forms of ornamentation consisted of geometric fig-ures, small circles, bands, straight and curved lines, &c all of which were drawn with categorical regularity and according to a certain rhythm. With the advance in the intellectual development of mankind, artists acquired more technical skill, and ventured even to make use of animals, plants, and, finally, of the human figure itself, for ornamental purposes. A plant or a living" being can be employed in ornamentation in two ways, firstly, just as it is formed by nature which is naturalistic Ornament, and secondly, in a form which reflects the spirit of the times,

where by was formed the stylistic Ornament. Each style exhibits one and the same plant and one and the same animal in a different fashion. Each country sought the models for its own ornamentation in its own Fauna and Flora, and each style had certain plants and animals which it preferred to all others. Style is really more the product of one epoch of time rather than of a single people, and it is according to this chronological stand-point that the present work has been arranged. In keeping with the tendency of the work, it may be remarked that the illustrations in the plates, title-pages, vignettes &c, are all reproductions of such objects only as were really produced at the period lor which the style is characteristic.

epoch of the Diluvian Era. During- the Paleolithic or Ancient Stone was habitually used as the material from which tools were made: in the Neolithic or later Stone Age the tools were polished and given an artistic form, and vessels made of clay decorated with simple ornamentations were manufactured. Lake dwellings, the burying ot the dead in caves, middens, barrows, cromlechs, and other numerous Megalithic monuments, the use and purpose of which are still matter ot specu-

lation,

are

characteristic of this era.

use of metals, bronze being

employed and

iron,

the different periods being designated as the Earlier and Later Bronze

Age and
1

Age. The use of bronze was throughout the entire of Europe at about the introduced from the Orient year 500 before Christ. The Later Bronze Age extended only over the middle and north of Europe and dates from about 1000 to 600 B.C.
the Earlier and Later Iron
Iron was however already worked during this period in the countries

bordering on the Mediterranean, and was besides extensively known to the Assyrians in the 9th century before Christ. In all probability the use of iron was introduced from Assyria into Europe, where, in conse-

quence of its introduction, new forms were given to arms, tools, and implements of all kinds. Iron was now used almost entirely for arms and tools, bronze being employed for artistic work. The Earlier or Ancient Iron Age is called also the Hallstadt Period, Hallstadt being a locality in the Salzkammergut where all the g-reatest and most important discoveries dealing with this period were made. The Later Iron Age, designated also as the La Tene Period in consequence of the discovery of remains found in the castle in the island La Tene in the Lake of Neuchatel, dates from 400 to 100 B. C, and is confined generally speaking
to the Gallic races.

not yet advanced beyond the Stone or Metal Age. Examples of their work are therefore included in the two plates dealing with these periods.

The

Prehistoric and the Primitive

Ornaments may be

said to be

purely geometric ones, the artists of the time rising very seldom to such heights as to try and imitate in their work the figures of men, animals, or plants. Although there cannot of course be any mention of "style" in

connection with it it lay so disconnected, so widely separated by time and space still, the Prehistoric Ornament as such formed the foundation

upon which genuine

styles

were constructed

later on.

hardly any other country such colossal stone

structures as in Egypt.

Apart from pure geometric ornament, the Egyptian ornament consists in a rigidly systematic arrangement of plants native to the country; men and animals were also used as models. The well-known Egyptiologist, Louis
Borchardt, has arrang-ed a clear, systematic classification of Egyptian plantornamentations, the plants used as models being arranged by him as follows:
1. The Lotus-flower, Nymphaea Lotus L., Xymphaea Cerula L., and Xymphaea Nelumbo L. 2. The Lily, the botanical name of which has not yet been fixed. 3. The Papyrus flower, Cyperus papyrus L. 4. The Date-palm, Phoenix dactylifera L.

5. Reed and a kind of Withe were also often employed as can be seen from certain fragments discovered in the excavations.

and the papyrus flowers were, however, used most often by the Ancient Egyptians in the ornamentation of all kinds of work, from the most colossal Egyptian columns down to the smallest objects.

was used as a support for the ceiling is an idea which cannot be accepted. As, however, supports for carrying the ceiling were necessary, there was placed, as connecting link between the supports and the burden, an abacus, which on account of the strong swell of the capital, was invisible from below. In this way, the idea of having again flowers under the open skies was realised. It is therefore, according to this, evident that the Ornament was used as a support and not that the support was ornamented.

which Egyptian artists wished to represent the lotus-flower were, first, the elliptical form of the buds with stalks, then the calyx of the flowers rounded off above, and the intermediate petals rounded off in a similar manner. The lotusflowers have no foot-leaves, these being peculiar to the papyrus-shaped columns only. There are closed and opened lotus and papyrus columns, as well as simple and compound ones. Although stone is the material which predominates, still, columns and vessels in wood have also been discovered. Casting in metal, keramic, and even glass-blowing, were known to the ancient Egyptians, and they were adepts in the textile industry. In the ornamentation of Egyptian buildings, more especially in temples and tombs, painting was the predominant characteristic.

be accepted as certain, that in this river valley a civilisation existed which was older than that of Egypt. The language of the Sumrier long after it ceased to exist as a living tongue was spoken as a dead language by scholars. The Bible itself mentions the colossal buildings erected by the Babvlonian and Assyrian kings at that remote period. In this particular country, there was such a mixture of peoples, one alternately subjugated by another, that the art of the epoch must be regarded as one common to the people as a whole. The people themselves appear to have been more of a sensible and practical, rather than of a poetic turn of mind. They were at once commercial as well as warlike, keeping material gain and their own supremacy above all other matters.

There must be a distinction made between a specific Babylonian period and a specific Assyrian period, the ruins of which were discovered at different levels in the excavations in Nimroud, Khorsabad, Nineveh, and Kuyundschik. It must be regarded as certain, that, next to the Egvptian, Babylonian- Assvrian art exercised a verv great influence, on the one side, towards the East and North, that is, India and Persia, and on the other side, towards the West, especially in the Mediterranean islands.

C, and, from 1130 B. C. were continuously attacked by the Assyrians, being- finally conquered and destroyed by Sargrm in the 8 th century before Christ. These people had a special, characteristic art-style of their own, a style, however, which shows traces of Egyptian and Assyrian influence. The Art of the Hetithes, however, on the other hand played an important part in and powerfully influenced the development of Persian art. Only very few remains of this

in existence.
2. The Buddha era which extends to the 7th century after Christ, and began when Bhuddism was raised to be the established state religion by King Asoca in the year 256 B.C.

Buddha died in the year 557 before Christ. 3. The New-Brahman Period which began on the restoration of the Brahma religion in the 7 th century and continued up into the 12 th century after Christ. This period reached 8 th and 12 th centuries after Christ.

In its primary stages of development, Grecian art in the islands on the Aegean Sea was subject to Oriental influences.

From the 7 th century before Christ downwards, when Oriental art began to decline, Hellas took up the leadership in art and civilisation, developed its own style in a characteristic manner and made it the ruling one throughout Three orders all the civilised countries existing at that time. of columns were etablished, the Doric, the Jonic, and a younger

Although the monuments left behind by the Etruscans show most decided traces of Grecian intluence, still, the hypothesis that the Etruscans were of Grecian origin. cannot be accepted on that account. The racial differences between them and the Grecians were so marked, they were so totally different in their physical constitution from the latter, that it is impossible to regard the Etruscans as of Hellenic origin. It is possible that in their wanderings towards Italy they came into intimate contact with the Grecians, and thus brought with them the elements of Grecian art into their adopted country. Their art was in all probability subject to influences proceeding from Phoenicia and Carthage, but more especially to ancient Ionic influence. They understood, however, how to change all these influences in such a way as to give them the stamp of their own national art. At the period of their subjugation by the Romans, the Etruscans had brought their own art to such a high state of development that it was able to exercise an influence by no means small on the development of Roman art which was at that time in its infancy. Roman art came
<i

afterwards, of course, entirely under the influence of Grecian

art.

The period

There are three styles of portals: 1. The Sogn Type. This takes its name from a country district, and is distinguished from the other styles of portals by the delicacy and elegance of the tracery work, no different or distinct periods of development being apparent. 2. The Thelmark Type. This type of portal may be seen at the
church of Christianasand. The traceries are broad, very often rough and coarse, and in strong contrast to the foregoing style. The development and decadence of the Thelmark type of portal can be much better observed and followed than the Sogn type.

worthy

of attention

in architectural work, and even in industrial art, imitations of historic styles are again in fashion. This simply means that a new style cannot

be established or produced by the will of a few thousand artists, who, in the hunt for something new, something which has never been there before, produce very often nothing but caricatures and grotesques instead of something really beautiful. A Style is the expression of the character of a people, the political, religious, and social condition of a country,

and must develop

itself

from these.

It is

therefore very likely that, in

order to correspond with the technical building conditions of the present time, the next characteristic style in Architecture will be the Iron Style.
