HECTOR ARCHITECT, DESIGNER, 1867–1942 provides a comprehensive look at the grand architect of Parisian Art Nouveau. With more than 680 illustrations in color and black and white, the book is based on Felipe Ferré’s remarkable photographic survey of Guimard’s buildings, furniture, objects and interiors. Set in the context of George Vigne’s history and biography, Ferré’s photography triumphantly reasserts this visionary master’s place in the history of architecture.
