Phil Lewis: Secret Art Nouveau, Gebunden

Klappentext

The most astonishing insight is how daring the builders of tiny boutiques, fairytale private palaces and breathtaking casinos were at the time.

This opulent illustrated book is intended as a documentation of the Art Nouveau heritage in twenty European countries. The focus is on lesser-known Art Nouveau buildings in smaller towns or in side streets of well-known Art Nouveau cities. As an acclaimed Art Nouveau photographer, Phil Lewis has succeeded in gaining exclusive access to many of these iconic structures over the course of his ten-year mission. He sheds new light on the magnificent ornamentation in interiors, as well as the Art Nouveau façades designed like theatre stages around 1900. The most astonishing insight is how daring the builders of tiny boutiques, fairytale private palaces and breathtaking casinos were at the time.
