Opis merytoryczny książki:

This book, in the beauty of its illustrations and in the profundity of its succinct text, offers us a remarkable explication of the significance of the master architect Antonio Gaudi and his works. Here we see and are told how Gaudi in each new project "returned to the origin" as he would say and worked out a new solution - different from all of his previous constructions - in order to meet the special circumstances of the task facing him at that point. And as time passed he came closer and closer to what we can see was his inevitable destiny: to unite as never before in the history of architecture the form and the structure of the environmental objects that he was erecting so that they would in turn - in form, color, and texture - approximate nature itself. And specially that nature of which Catalonia is composed: scaring peaks, sturdy trees, rocky shorelines, sunny strands, and rolling waves of iridescent water.
