About This Item
New York: Rizzoli, 1987. Hardcover. VG (Few marks from previous gallery owner; pages are clean.). Red cloth, gilt letters on spine & front cover, cream & color illus. dust jacket, 360 pp., 350 illus., chiefly in color; weighs 6 lbs. "The first to describe the growing convergence during the last decade towards a new classical style -- a return to painting and building within the western classical tradition. Often misread as Neo-Conservatism, this style cuts across the socio-political spectrum as a radical departure from Modernism. Like the revolutionary classicism of the 1790s and the Free-Style Classicism of the 1900s, it has social and moral roots and is variable in genre." (dj).
