Title: Defining edges
Description: "Using a completely original approach to the subject, Bailey examines more than fifty works of art - some famous masterpieces and some little-known works - to learn how their frames, many of them designed or made by the artists themselves, relate to the pictures they surround. The use of traditional frames is discussed in exquisite detail, even those that diminish the pictures they are supposed to enhance.

It is not surprising that certain artists - among them Michelangelo, Ingres, Church, Degas, van Gogh, Klimt, Whistler, Matisse, Seurat, and Mondrian - designed frames for their own pictures. Klee, Miro Kahlo, Dali, Calder, and Hockney incorporated actual frames into the works themselves."--BOOK JACKET.
