Spanish Tile Designs in Full Color (Dover Pictorial Archive) by Carol Belanger Grafton (Editor).
For centuries, tiles have been a staple of Spanish design and decor. Selected from rare l9th- and early-20th-century manufacturers' catalogs, the exquisite full-color tile designs in this splendid collection display a host of patterns, many revealing striking Moorish influence.
