About this title

Synopsis

Photographs depict the sites of ancient, Christian, and modern Rome

Reviews

Brooke presents an absolutely stunning collection of monochrome photographs depicting typical signature views of Rome and an array of other, less familiar architectural jewels. This visually compelling guide is divided into three historically significant and culturally distinct eras. Approximately 200 black-and-white photos capture the unique essence of ancient Rome, Christian Rome, and modern Rome. Each photographic representation is accompanied by a detailed explanatory caption, and many are offset by exquisite period engravings. Three essays by prominent art historians serve as an introduction, but the superb photographs stand alone in this sumptuous testament to the timeless power and social value of architecture from a photographer of considerable artistry and talent.
