Published by Boston Architectural Club: Boston 1925
"
The Book of the Boston Architectural Club for 1925 is a finely produced annual that serves both as a visual archive and a scholarly study of Spanish architecture. It presents a wide array of photographs, watercolours, pencil sketches, measured drawings, and architectural details collected by members of the Boston Architectural Club, capturing the sacred and domestic structures of Spain in all their richness. The volume highlights the varied influences of Moorish, Gothic, and Renaissance design, showing facades, cloisters, doorways, and ornamentation in exquisite detail, often accompanied by commentary on proportion, craftsmanship, and regional variation.
This 1925 edition stands as both a historical record and an artistic portfolio, embodying the Beaux-Arts tradition of study through travel and drawing. It reveals early twentieth-century American architects' fascination with Mediterranean forms and their adaptation to modern design. Beautifully printed and richly illustrated, the book would appeal to architects, students of design, and collectors of early architectural publications, especially those interested in Spanish and Moorish revival styles."
Some fading to cover and damage to lower portion of spine. Book has general ageing as would be expected but in decent condition overall. Please study photos to understand condition. Happy to provide more photos on request.
