Stone Age. Ancient castles of Europe wer. angielska - Frederic Chaubin - książka
Producent: Taschen
Join photographer Frédéric Chaubin on his extraordinary expedition across Europe, as he captures the essence of medieval stone fortresses and castles. His work, "Stone Age: Ancient Castles of Europe," showcases over 200 architectural marvels spanning 21 countries. This collection brings to life the rich history and stunning architecture of Europe's most breathtaking medieval castles, offering a fresh perspective on these ancient structures. Following his exploration of Soviet design in "CCCP," Chaubin shifts focus to these historical edifices, which, with their utilitarian yet striking appearance, laid the groundwork for the Brutalist movement by prioritizing function and raw materials. Using a Linhof view camera, Chaubin dedicated five years to documenting these sites. The book features an informative map and a detailed essay, allowing readers to explore 400 years of history, from the Middle Ages through to the 15th century. "Stone Age" is not only a study of these castles' decay and resilience but also a tribute to their continued allure and their significant, almost magical place in our shared history.
