| Publisher Description: The turn of the nineteenth century saw an extraordinary flowering of invention in architecture and design, with two contrasting styles emerging--Art Nouveau and the International Style. Professor Pevsner brings a new clarity to an often confusing period, tracing--with the aid of nearly two hundred carefully chosen illustrations--the origins of twentieth-century ideas in architecture and the applied arts. |
