The Journal of Design and Manufactures,

CONTAINING

ACTUAL FABRIC PATTERNS AND ENGRAVINGS.

THE JOURNAL OF DESIGN AND MANUFACTURES is addressed to the PRODUCERS and CONSUMERS of all DECORATIVE MANUFACTURES, as well the MERCHANT, the MANUFACTURER, the DESIGNER, the ART WORKMAN, as the GENERAL PUBLIC.

The JOURNAL of DESIGN and MANUFACTURES advocates

The Recognition of Sound Principles of Design, and the Necessity for a Faith in them.

The Application of these Principles to Manufactures and Purposes of Utility.

The Progress of Design in accordance with the Wants and Sentiments of the Present Age rather than a Slavish Repetition of the Ancient or Mediaval Art of Past Ages.

The Improvement of the Laws regulating Copyright of Design and the Extension of the Period of Copyright.

The Diffusion of Art-Education through all Classes, and the Increased Efficiency of Schools of Design.

And

The Establishment of Public Exhibitions of Decorative
Manufactures.

Four Volumes of the JOURNAL OF DESIGN AND MANUFACTURES are now completed, price 7s. 6d. each, bound. During their progress, the effect and soundness of the principles advocated in them have been signally shown in the extension of Copyright of Design, in the amendment of the Schools of Design, in the general improvement of Decorative Manufactures; but, above all, in the success of the Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of all Nations, which the JOURNAL OF DESIGN AND MANUFACTURES consistently supported as a theory, long before it became a great fact.

THE JOURNAL OF DESIGN AND MANUFACTURES is the only publication in Europe which inserts in its pages SPECIMENS OF ACTUAL FABRICS.

DURING THE EXHIBITION the Journal of Design and Manufactures will insert SPECIMENS of the finest woven fabrics, &c., exhibited.
