Ackermann's Repository

Ackermann's Repository of Arts was an illustrated, British periodical published from 1809-1829 by Rudolph Ackermann. [Ackermann's Regency Furniture & Interiors, By Rudolph Ackermann, Introduction by Pauline Agius, Crowood Press, 1984] Although commonly called Ackermann's Repository, or, simply Ackerman's, the formal title of the journal was Repository of arts, literature, commerce, manufactures, fashions, and politics, and it did, indeed cover all of these fields. [Rudolph Ackermann, His Life: The Populariser of Aquatint Engraving, Pioneer of Art-book IllustrationBy Arthur Ackermann, pub. Arthur Ackermann & Son] In its day, it had great influence on English taste in fashion, architecture, and literature.
