John Derian: Picture Book Collection 1, Hardcover

A New York Times bestseller, named one of the best gift books of the year by Entertainment Weekly, House Beautiful, T: The New York Times Style Magazine and more. John Derian’s home goods empire started with his now-iconic collectible plates decoupaged with 19th-century artwork sourced from old and rare books, a process that credited him with elevating the decoupage technique into fine art.

Now, for the first time ever, comes the book John Derian fans have been waiting for. Culled from the thousands of images that have appeared in his biannual collections, here is an astoundingly beautiful assortment of nearly 300 full-bleed images in their original form. From intensely colored flowers and birds to curious portraits, hand-drawn letters, and breathtaking landscapes, the result is an oversized object of desire, a work of art in and of itself.
