Owen Jones directed the Great Exhibition of 1851; the influence of his career and this, his major work, can hardly be overstated. After its first publication in 1856, The Grammar of Ornament became a central sourcebook of Victorian taste. For its chromolithographic plates, The Grammar of Ornament has been cited as one of the finest examples of its type in the history of bookmaking.
