Hector Guimard

"Presents a comprehensive, chronological inventory of the architect's work. The book is the product of a remarkable collaboration between art historian Georges Vigne and photographer Felipe Ferré. Combining Ferré's 30-year photographic project on Guimard with authoritative biographical and historical texts by Vigne, the book returns this nearly forgotten master in line with the major architects of the 20th century"--Bookjacket.
