介绍（中）	布鲁斯·J·塔尔伯特（Bruce J.Talbert）是一位颇具影响力的苏格兰设计师，主要以其装饰华丽的哥特式家具而闻名。伯里克利内阁（2015.281a，b）是他最雄心勃勃的工作的象征。他也是一位成功的商业设计师，这些烛台代表了他为中产阶级市场所做的工作，包括纺织品、金属制品、彩色玻璃和地毯等室内装饰方案。1868年（尽管日期为1867年），他出版了第一本也是最具影响力的书《哥特式形式应用于家具、金属制品和家居装饰》，该书倡导改革后的哥特式风格的结构诚实性。烛台代表了历史化图像与现代制造业的结合点。他们的目标是中产阶级市场，而不是精英市场，他们在维多利亚时代庆祝被认为是英国"自己"风格的哥特式建筑。
介绍（英）	Bruce J. Talbert was an influential Scottish designer who is mainly known for his richly-ornamented furniture in the Gothic style. The Pericles Cabinet (2015.281a, b) is emblematic of his most ambitious work. He was also a successful commercial designer and these candlesticks represent the work he did for a middle class market, which included schemes for interior furnishings like textiles, metalwork, stained glass and carpets. In 1868 (though dated 1867) he published his first and most influential book, Gothic Forms Applied to Furniture, Metal Work and Decoration for Domestic Purposes, which championed the structural honesty of the reformed Gothic style. The candlesticks represent the juncture of historicizing imagery with modern manufacturing. Intended for a middle class market rather than an elite one, they speak to the Victorian celebration of what was perceived as Britain’s “own” style, the Gothic.
