Stamp on back free end page. Sticker and due date card on back... Dark blue casedbound book. There is a dust jacket with the title in black down a pale yellow spine. Pages: (6), 7-159. Profusely illustrated with color images. "London is famous for Big Ben; Paris for the Eiffel Tower; Rome for the Colosseum. Barcelona, on the other hand, is not identified by one or two famous buildings as these other Eurpean cities, but rather by an entire movement of turn-of-the-century architecture inown simply as 'Modernisme'. Familiar to Americans as art nouveau, its most famous practitioner was the artist and architect Antoni Gaudi. But the city is filled with superb examples of art nouveau by many other architects, which are all revealed in vivid color in 'Barcelona Art Nouveau'. This book offers a tour of 46 houses, public buildings, and monuments in the art-nouveau style, including brand-new photographs of the work of Gaudi. Visit the famous literary café Els Quatre Gats, which was once patronized by Pablo Picasso, who also designed the menu. Lose yourself in the whimisical [sic] curves of Casa Josep Batlló, a wonderful example of the combination of artisan tradition and richness that exemplifies art nouveau. These structures, fully restored to pristine condition for the 1992 Olympics, have been rediscovered by both foreigners and Barcelonans alike, and are captured inside and out in this fascinating record of the adventurous, undulating designs of an exciting era."

Fabulous photos of much of the superb architecture of Barcelona. Follow street by street as you see all the wonderful private homes, commercial buildings, churches, furnishings, etc. all in the art noveau style. Many of Gaudi's works are highlighted. The book shows many interiors in detail that are not always open to the public. A large format coffee table book, guaranteed to impress. Recently visited Barcelona and receive fond memories each time I open the book.
