 Arthur Lasenby Liberty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arthur Lasenby Liberty (August 13, 1843–May 11, 1917) was born in Chesham, Buckinghamshire, England.
In 1875, he opened a shop, Liberty and Co. in Regent Street, London — selling ornaments, fabrics and miscellaneous art objects from Japan and the Far East.
Liberty and Co. first catered for an eclectic mixture of popular styles, but then went on to develop a fundamentally different style closely linked to the aesthetic movement of the 1890s and the "new art" (Art Nouveau).

 Liberty in London by John Zvesper   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
The scaled-down versions of the Statue of Liberty that since the late nineteenth century have been publicly displayed in several French cities, though they are signs of the political kinship between France and the United States, have also occasionally been the focus of political differences that go back to these countries’ different revolutionary experiences.
Liberty, which specializes in fabrics and domestic furnishings, opened in 1875 — the year that the French began constructing the Statue of Liberty (the big one).
In design-conscious Italy, art nouveau is called "stile Liberty." In 1975 Liberty’s centenary was marked by an exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum.

 Comune di Quartu S.Elena - 1900 la borghesia e lo stile liberty
Così, alla fine dell'Ottocento e nei primi decenni del Novecento, facciate di palazzine su strada in stile liberty si affiancarono ai muri alti e spogli delle introverse case tradizionali (dove la sola decorazione esterna era spesso costituita dai motivi scolpiti nella chiave dell'arco generalmente a tutto sesto che accoglieva l'unico portale).
Bisogna però tenere presente che, se esternamente veniva eseguito con l'applicazione in linea di massima coerente dei canoni del liberty internazionale, il "palazzo" quartese (e campidanese in genere), all'interno, si sovrapponeva senza sostituirla alla casa a corte.
La prima fu costruita nel 1890-92 in stile tardo-neoclassico, secondo il progetto di un allievo dell'architetto cagliaritano Gaetano Cima; la seconda, successiva e ancora abitata, è invece in stile liberty.

This application was not to be, however, a copy of foreign models that had already been tried out, because it was strongly influenced by the large architectural tradition of Venice.
In fact, the Venetian style (in its diverse Romanesque, Byzantine and Gothic variants) was to be the basis of almost all the villa projects.
The "liberty" aspect was to take shape not so much in the internal construction project as in the decoration of the external façade and the railings surrounding the garden.

Stile Industria gave the situation proper attention; in the double issue of May 1960, the editorial was dedicated the award discussion.
Italian industrial designers had always been fascinated by design from the Nordic countries, whose contributions to the X and XI Triennali were deeply admired.(50) Nordic design attracted great attention in Italy due to its use of natural materials and organic forms.
The analysis of the succeeding discussion at the ADI and the debate in Stile Industria revealed strong reactions to the declaration of a crisis in Italian design and a somewhat less homogeneous sense of resentment with regard to the withholding of the award.

By importing fashionable designs from continental Europe and Asia, as well as exporting their own designs abroad, Liberty would become one of the most successful of the department stores with the policy of commissioning designs from leading artists and architects of the day.
Indeed, the firm's importance is reflected in the Italian term, lo stile Liberty, or "Liberty style," which is often used to generically describe avant-garde taste from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Knox was one of Liberty's most popular and prolific designers, in particular producing designs for silver goods, the best known of which were the Tudric line and the Cymric line, of which this claret jug is an example.

Although known as Jugendstil in Germany, Sezessionstil in Austria, Modernista in Spain, and Stile Liberty or Stile Floreale in Italy, Art Nouveau has become the general term applied to a highly varied movement that was European-centred but internationally current at the end of the century.
In the United States the Art Nouveau movement arrived with Louis Comfort Tiffany and was especially influential on ornamental rather than spatial design, particularly on Sullivan's decorative schemes and, for a time, those of Frank Lloyd Wright.
Decorative exuberance and the formally picturesque were elements of Stile Floreale buildings by the Italian Raimondo D'Aronco, such as the main building for the Applied Art Exhibition held at Turin, Italy, in 1902.
