ANTONIO GAUDI, BY GEORGE R. COLLINS |
|
"Plate 53. Detail of a carved wooden ceiling in the Casa Fernandez-Andres." ("Antonio Gaudi," by George R. Collins)
"Plate 54. Casa Calvet in Barcelona, 1898-1904. The owner's name (Pedro Martir) is symbolized by a transfigured saint's head at the cornice, the center one being Peter Martyr. As usual the building is topped with crosses." ("Antonio Gaudi," by George R. Collins)
"Plate 55. Lobby of Casa Calvet. As with the Palacio Guell, one of the outstanding qualities of the building is the costliness and variety of materials--natural and artificial--employed in its decoration." ("Antonio Gaudi," by George R. Collins)
"Plate 56. View of the porch of the Colonia Guell chapel (1898-1908-15)." ("Antonio Gaudi," by George R. Collins)
"Plate 57. Crypt of the Colonia Guell chapel near Barcelona. The roughness of effect throughout the building is enhanced by the irregular way that these inclined columns are cut. Note the spidery benches." ("Antonio Gaudi," by George R. Collins)
"Plate 58. Detail under the porch of the Colonia Guell chapel at Santa Coloma de Cervello (near Barcelona)." ("Antonio Gaudi," by George R. Collins)
