A history of industrial design reform in 19th century Britain. This book demonstrates that preoccupations with trade, labour, and manufacture lay at the heart of Victorian-era debates about cultural institutions. It shows how Victorians vied to upend aesthetic hierarchies in an imperial age and in the process to refashion London's public culture.
