Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guy Lowell toured Italy in the early 20th century, recording great rural villas and farmhouses. His photographs and drawings were released in two massive volumes in 1920, when the rage was on to recreate traditional Mediterranean architecture. The rage is back, and so are his books, in an even bigger compilation. In all, over 500 illustrations transport you through the Italian countryside in a simple, elegant lifestyle that today's busy landscape desingers, homebuilders, and great architects are attempting to recreate. Herein lies much inspiration for those who appreciate great classics.

Download or read book Pride in Modesty written by Michelangelo Sabatino and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2011-05-21 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following Italy's unification in 1861, architects, artists, politicians, and literati engaged in volatile debates over the pursuit of national and regional identity. Growing industrialization and urbanization across the country contrasted with the rediscovery of traditionally built forms and objects created by the agrarian peasantry. Pride in Modesty argues that these ordinary, often anonymous, everyday things inspired and transformed Italian art and architecture from the 1920s through the 1970s. Through in-depth examinations of texts, drawings, and buildings, Michelangelo Sabatino finds that the folk traditions of the pre-industrial countryside have provided formal, practical, and poetic inspiration directly affecting both design and construction practices over a period of sixty years and a number of different political regimes. This surprising continuity allows Sabatino to reject the division of Italian history into sharply delimited periods such as Fascist Interwar and Democratic Postwar and to instead emphasize the long, continuous process that transformed pastoral and urban ideals into a new, modernist Italy.
