[ebooks] Painting With Light by John Alton in Arts-Photography

Description

This is the first history of Stockholmrsquo;s development from the cityrsquo;s unique seventeenth-century redevelopment and extension to the postmodern; postindustrial trends of today. While the cityrsquo;s planners borrowed the ideas from abroad at certain periods; they provided the lead for the rest of the world at others. For much of the mid-twentieth century Stockholm was the model for Europe and elsewhere. Written by an acknowledged authority on the city and Swedish architecture and planning generally; with a wide range of illustrations; this book provides a much needed explanation of one of Europersquo;s great cities.
