The third installment in Arnold Schwartzman's photographic trilogy delves into the world's most sensuous architectural wonders of the 1890s and 1900s. The author has carefully chosen from his extensive photographic archive spanning over fifty years to present a breathtaking collection of over 350 images, spanning from the South Pacific to the cusp of Asia, from South America to Europe, from Spain to Hungary, and beyond. This captivating collection showcases the architectural style known as Art Nouveau, which emerged during a romantic era at the turn of the century.
Art Nouveau, also referred to as Jugendstil, Secession, and Liberty, gained prominence during this time. Its roots can be traced back to the Arts and Crafts Movement led by William Morris in Great Britain. Notable architects such as Rennie Mackintosh, Guimard, Lavoretti, Horta, van de Velde, Wagner, Hoffmann, Gaudi, and Tiffany each contributed their distinctive interpretations of the Art Nouveau style, resulting in a diverse array of structures that have withstood the ravages of two World Wars.
As the reader delves into this diverse collection of images, they are transported back to the Belle Epoque, a period of immense cultural and artistic flourishing. Each page offers a glimpse into the rich heritage of the world, showcasing the architectural marvels that have stood the test of time. The Art Nouveau movement, with its emphasis on organic forms, intricate details, and a fusion of different artistic styles, left an indelible mark on the architectural landscape, and this third volume of Schwartzman's trilogy celebrates its enduring beauty and significance.
