The Shakers : from Mount Lebanon to the worldEntry/Object ID
E184.S53.K6Description
Accompanying a major exhibition organized by the Farnsworth Art Museum, this book presents a new and authentic perspective on the Shaker community. Specially commissioned photography, archival imagery, essays by prominent scholars, and a firsthand interview with a member of the Sabbathday Lake Shaker community deepen our understanding of this influential movement and style. Outstanding examples of furniture, textiles, tools, and other objects-drawn primarily from the collection of Shaker Museum, Mount Lebanon-bring the fascinating world of the Shakers to life. The book also explores the equally compelling material culture of Sabbathday Lake in New Gloucester, Maine.Lexicon
