About this Event

In the century spanning from the 1860s until the 1960s, the Clyde shipyards constructed numerous impressive passenger ships, many of which contained interiors that were masterpieces of the decorative arts. In this presentation, Professor Bruce Peter will talk about his new book LUSITANIA TO QE2: THE GREAT CLYDE-BUILT SHIPS AND THE CREATION OF THEIR INTERIORS, explaining how the interiors of Clyde-built ships were commissioned, made and installed. Bruce Peter is Professor of Design History at The Glasgow School of Art. His interests encompass modern architecture and design for transport, hospitality and entertainment.
