ANTONIO GAUDI, BY GEORGE R. COLLINS |
|
"Plate 65. Attic of 'Bell Esguard.' Here, Gaudi called on the wizardry of his Catalan masons to produce what seems to be pure 'Constructivism.'" ("Antonio Gaudi," by George R. Collins)
"Plate 66. Panoramic view of part of the Park Guell of Barcelona, 1900-14. The building seen above the right hand gatehouse is the house in which Gaudi lived from 1906 to 1925." ("Antonio Gaudi," by George R. Collins)
"Plate 67. View of the stairway and 'market hall' of the Park Guell in about 1908 when the ceramic benches of the playground above were still under construction. In this photograph the lizard fountain is concealed behind the serpent one in the center." ("Antonio Gaudi," by George R. Collins)
"Plate 68. Roofs and crowning members of the two gate lodges of the Park Guell. The two perforated pinnacles are actually chimney pots." ("Antonio Gaudi," by George R. Collins)
"Plate 69. Playground of the Park Guell in Barcelona. In the distance can be seen the church of the Sagrada Familia. The patterns in tile mosaics on the benches are a child's delight." ("Antonio Gaudi," by George R. Collins)
"Plate 70. A gallery of the Park Guell supporting one of the several viaducts." ("Antonio Gaudi," by George R. Collins)
