Paperback. Condition: Fine. First Edition. First Printing. A FINE, bright, clean, tight collector-worthy copy. "Photographed over the course of a year by renowned photojournalist Santi Visalli, 'Chicago' provides a fresh and imaginative perspective on the visual splendor of a great metropolis, evocative to visitors and natives alike." 208 pages. "In more than 165 full-color photographs, Visalli memorializes the monuments of Louis Sullivan, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. The skyscraper, born in Chicago in a collaboration of glass and steel, culminates in Sears Tower, the tallest building in the world-photographs of and from the tower reveal the city in breathtaking ways. There are dazzling views of architectural masterpieces, from details of Sullivan's ornamental facades to the shiny grandeur of new buildings by such contemporary greats as Kohn Pederson Fox. A master with the lens, Visalli gives us unique views of the skyline from the Art Institute, Grant Park, and the Adler Planetarium. Chicago is also a town of many neighborhoods, pastimes, and cultural pursuits. Visalli escorts us to Old Town, Chinatown, Orchestra Hall, the Lincoln Park Zoo, and the Art Institute of Chicago." GC3.
