Les Façades De Paris : Portes, Balcons Et Garde-Corps
Auteur(s) : Dominique Mathez (ill.), Joël Orgiazzi (texte)
This book offers an original portrait of Paris through its buildings from the end of the 19th to the beginning of the 20th century and the delicate works of art that are their windows, doors and balconies. Innumerable motifs ornament the architecture of the French capital-each a minor masterpiece of fine design and ironwork artistry.
Never-before-published watercolors and ink drawings by French illustrator and medical doctor Dominique Mathez bring each building's beautiful exterior to life. Away from the over-celebrated monuments and landmarks, the city's true, subtle charm emerges, distilled in a striking invitation to take a new look and rediscover its architecture through the ages.
