Ornament may be in itself perfectly satisfactory and even charming, and yet so inadequate to the purpose to which it is put that it is obviously out of place. It is scarcely necessary to say that how- ever beautiful such work may be, it is bad decora- tion. Whenever the conditions of ornament are The Use in Ornament. 79 impossible of fulfilment, ornament is better left alone ; and the conditions proper to design are, that it should be fit — for its purpose, for its place, and for the material i
...n which, and the process by which, it is executed.
Intelligent decoration has always some definite intention in it ; and that intention or idea rules everything absolutely, even to the least significaht detail. Whether the motive be unpretending or ambitious, every stroke of work properly leads up to it. Every stroke that does not do so is ill done. The first step in design is to determine which shall be the culminating point of the decoration ; and however lavishly the artist may distribute enrichment, he I'eserves for that his crowning effort, making all else converge towards it.
