Authors: Frederique Lemerle et al.

This beautifully illustrated book offers a visual tour of the major styles and trends of baroque architecture throughout Europe a.o. Through such examples as the undulating facade of Rome's San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane, the lavish succession of rooms in the Palace of Versailles, the seemingly endless array of columns and windows in the Winter Palace at St. Petersburg, the authors observe how baroque style developed in relation to the particular urban cultures of each nation where it became popular.

Author: Borja de Riquer I Permanyer

Modernismo was the uniquely Catalonian offshoot of Art Nouveau from Antoni Gaudi's famously organic Church of the Sagrada Familia to his skeletal Casa Battlo, from the breathtaking jewel tones of the mosaic and stained glass in Lluis Domenech i Montaner's Palau de la Musica Catalana to Lluis Masriera's elegantly ornate jewellery, furniture, paintings and more. This gorgeously illustrated volume documents the rich and varied works produced during this period.
