This review is from: Carlo Scarpa. Museo Canoviana, Possagno: Opus 22 Series (Opus, 22) (Hardcover)
Great book, amazing architect for the ages! I think I really love this series as the books are pretty large format, so make a nice "coffee table" book as well as a great addition to an architect/designer's library with amazing photos by Richard Bryant, and good essay contextualizing Scarpa and Canova and plans for all you architects out there. I haven't been yet, but it's definitely on my "Bucket List."
