4.0 out of 5 stars Copiously illustrated review of 57 major works 29 Oct 2005
By Eugene Tenenbaum - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a concise and copiously illustrated paperback survey on only 176 pages in of all major buildings and projects from 1874 to 1924 published under ISBN: 3760881319 by Artemis (Zürich) and 1874056153 by Artemis (Boston), and under ISBN: 3764355743 by Birkhäuser (Basel...) English and German side by side. Following 37 pages with analysis of the architect's style, each of the presented 57 works is headed by a description from as little as just a few lines to over a page long followed by illustrations from one to several depending on work's scope. All of 210 only B&W multi-picture illustrations - at least a half of them technical (plans, sections, sketches, elevations, etc.), but also B&W photos of a good quality - are well balanced, superbly crisp and perfectly legible. On several pages at the end, there are: a biography, selected bibliography, list of works, etc. Like all from the Studio Paperback series, this book holds a solid position among architectural monographs even of a bigger size. Similar to smaller books from the Works and Projects series published by Gustavo Gili (GG) in English and Spanish.
