		Elizabethan court fashion was heavily influenced by Spanish and French styles.

	Elizabethan Era Furniture
		The Elizabethan age is most famous for, of course, its theater, hair styles, dress and fashion, music, but it is the furniture of the Elizabethan period that holds our interest presently.
		At the close of the Elizabethan era in English furniture history furniture and interior decoration styles had undergone significant changes from the preceding tudor period and furniture had begun to be made in larger quantities and varieties.
		The Elizabethan era, or as some would have it, Elisabethan, of English furniture history saw a gradual absorption of the Gothic tradition, dominant in the tudor furniture period, into a native English version of the Renaissance movement, particularly that part of the Renaissance as had developed in Holland, Germany, and the Flemish lands.

		This splendidly illustrated book not only shows the magnificence of the new style of architecture through specially commissioned photography of Elizabethan and Jacobean houses, but also examines the great pattern books of the time to show the roots of the often wild elaboration of the period.
