A fine study of Naples, from the research forces of LAN, who had presented the brilliant review of Paris urban plan and Hausmann three years ago. Now, Napoli, the Italian character, the city of port and labor, of noise and sound and bustle.this a study of its squares and buildings, of its mad, operatic character. They create an atlas of Naples, eighteen significant buildings 1930-1960, and extrapolate to make sense and pattern and order. The Mediterranean of Naples, crossing the bold and brassy modernism of new Napoli, make a wonderful and mad urban opera. The French photographer Cyrille Weiner adds 50 color photos of Naples, now, and it all begins to make some sense. The lovely book concludes with exceptional new illustrations, in beautiful black line drawings, detailing the very architecture of this lavish seaport.
