From the foreword: The use of frames for individual works of art dates back to the Medieval period, and we have seen expressions of the framemaker's art grow and evolve over the course of many centuries. American framemaking came into is own in the 19th and early 20th centuries, when the Arts and Crafts Movement created a renewed interest in hand-made objects. Here in Bucks County, important craftspersons associated with this movement added their own voices to the development of American framemaking.
