Die Baukunst Der Neuesten Zeit.

This is a very good hardcover copy in the familiar green paper-covered boards with gilt device to the front cover, and black leather spine with red panel printed with gilt titles. Text in German. This is one of the best one volume surveys of European architecture at the beginning of the 20th century. The work of over 100 architects is surveyed and classified by building types and styles. Profusely illustrated with 25 tipped-in color plates mounted on stiff black paper, and hundreds of black & white photos, plans and drawings. Thumbnail biographies. Index. The edges of the boards are rubbed, the corners a bit worn, but the leather spine is fine with no fraying or fading, or marks of any kind. Inside the book is generally very clean, but a couple of pages have edges or corners creased. The table of contents page has the blind stamp of the well known New York architectural firm Starrett & Van Vleck. 10 1/2" high X 7 1/2" wide, 607 pages. This book will be securely wrapped and packed in a sturdy box and shipped with tracking.
