The Architecture of Sir Edwin Lutyens [WITH] The Life of Sir Edwin Lutyens by Christopher Hussey.
1 / 12
The Architecture of Sir Edwin Lutyens [WITH] The Life of Sir Edwin Lutyens by Christopher Hussey.
The grandest books on the work of this celebrated English architect. This monumental work took several years to complete and by the time of publication Lutyens had rather fallen out of fashion, subsequently going through something of a retrospective renaissance. There were 500 subscribers originally and it is unlikely that very many more sets were published.
First editions; 3 vols, folio, 4to (415 x 320 mm); & 1 vol., 8vo (255 x 210 mm); 61 pp, 1110 plates of architectural drawings and 271 photographic illustrations; 52 pp, 121 architectural plates, 277 photographic illustrations; 59 pp 107 architectural plates and 173 photographic illustrations, very minor age-toning to leaves, otherwise very clean; second work: xxii, 602 pp, photographic illustrations throughout; publisher's green cloth, gilt titles, top edges sprayed maroon, minor rubbing, otherwise very good; a rare set in very good condition.
