Tuscany Interiors Hardcover Book by Paolo Rinaldi

About the Item

Tuscany Interiors large hardcover coffee table book By Paolo Rinaldi and Taschen. Nestling in the gentle hills and brushed with the hazy sfumato of the air, the homes of Tuscany have long been the objects of lust and legend. This book affords a privileged glimpse of Tuscan houses and interiors. Leading lights of the international arts and fashion scenes open their doors and bid us enter. The range extends from the simple casa colonia, the typical farmhouse of Chianti, via the majestic palazzo of the Puccis and the magnificent villa of the Siemens family to a house designed by Ettore Sottsass. The land of lust and legend Nestling in the gentle hills and brushed with the hazy sfumato of the air, the homes of Tuscany have long been the objects of lust and legend. With Florence as its center, the Tuscan region of Italy has become a symbol of romantic, rural elegance, used as a backdrop for many period movies as well as for commercials. This latest installment in the "Interiors" series shows domestic interiors of the region, primarily of villas but also of apartments and farmhouses. The styles shown in the beautifully photographed color photos include modern, classical, and rustic, reflecting the personalities of the inhabitants. The text is in English, French, and German. Interior design collections as well as public libraries where there is an interest in Tuscany will consider this a worthy purchase. Original title Tuscany Interiors / Interieurs De Toscane (Interiors) Series Taschen Interiors Format Hardcover First published January 1, 1998. This edition from 2004.

  • Great Escapes: Italy Angelika Taschen and Christiane Reiter Hardcover Book
    By Angelika Taschen, TASCHEN
    Located in North Hollywood, CA
    Great Escapes: Italy Angelika Taschen and Christiane Reiter Hardcover Book. To travel through Italy is as close as one gets to being in paradise. For centuries, writers, artists, architects, and merchants have been drawn here, inspired by the beauty of Venice, Florence, Naples, and Rome. Countless books, paintings, poems, and sculptures are evidence of its undying appeal, and over the past 60 years, the country has become one of the world’s top travel and holiday destinations. The loveliness of Italy—its architecture, landscapes, culture and food (some of the world’s finest!)—if not eternal, is certainly enduring, and the easygoing and relaxed Italian lifestyle, il dolce far niente, is still unrivaled. Here, some of Italy’s most amazing landscapes are brought to life, like Lake Como (residence of George Clooney), Venice, Florence and Tuscany, the Amalfi Coast, and no less magical, the Aeolian Islands off the coast of Sicily. In these mythical surroundings are legendary hotels full of atmosphere, where novels are set, movies are made, weddings are celebrated, and famous love stories consummated: Villa d’Este on Lake Como, the Hotel Splendido...
