From venerable landmarks such as Westminster Abbey to Victorian masterpieces, Modernist icons such as the Museum of Natural History and the Penguin Pool at the London Zoo, and the latest marvels of modern technology, among them Swiss Re, this deck of Knowledge Cards surveys forty-eight of London’s most prominent buildings. Each card’s front presents a photograph of a famous London building from the library of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). On the card’s back, text by Robert Elwall--curator of RIBA’s Photographs Collection and author of several books on British architecture--details the building’s design, construction, restoration, and other facts. Both informative and visually sublime, this deck is sure to delight history enthusiasts as well as architecture aficionados! Size: 3 1/4 x 4". ISBN 978-0-7649-4091-0. |
