A Beautiful and Intelligent Book,
By Theseus "theseus" (US of A) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Horta: Art Nouveau to Modernism (Hardcover)

A quality book from the Ludion Press in Ghent: oversized hardback with heavy dustjacket, cloth over boards with a sewn binding, 231 pp, color and b&w illustrations throughout.
