[Buy it!] | Kirk Sheila and Philip Webb et al. | USD 85.00
(Tue Jun 11 17:13:32 2024) | ABAA | Mullen Books, Inc. ABAA / ILAB | Chichester, West Sussex, England/Hoboken, N.J.: Wiley-Academy, Date: 2005. Paperback. Good+ (Wraps are lightly edgeworn/scuffed/smudged; textblock edges are scuffed/smudged/worn; interior is clean and binding is solid.). Light peach wraps with photo-illustration on the cover, with red and white lettering; 336 pp.; richly illustrated. 'This is the definitive book on Philip Webb (1831-1915), a key figure in the Arts and Crafts movement and a leading member of the Pre-Raphaelite circle, who has since emerged as one of the most important architects of the nineteenth century. It provides a comprehensive account of Webb's design philosophy, his architectural work and his influence, while also telling his fascinating life story.' 'Combining architectural history and biography, the compelling narrative gives a full picture of the character of this man - a man known for his absolute integrity, who shunned publicity but nevertheless attracted clients of high status and came to be one of the most significant architectural innovators of his age. Interspersed with vivid descriptions of Webb's buildings, it covers his relationships with his clients, contractors and artistic contemporaries.' 'Aimed at the wider public, as well as the academic world, this is the first publication to include a systematic and detailed analysis of Webb's philosophy and all his work. It is lavishly illustrated with new photography by Martin Charles, and plans, drawings, and archive photographs, which are brought together for the first time.'-- rear cover. 2005.
