| Sommario/riassunto: | This book offers a comprehensive exploration of the life and work of Antoni Gaudí, a legendary architect known for his unique and eclectic style. Despite leading a private life and publishing little, Gaudí's architectural masterpieces, such as the Sagrada Família and Park Güell, have made a significant impact on modern architecture and are recognized as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The book delves into Gaudí's personal contradictions and his total commitment to his craft, exploring his deeply religious beliefs, Catalan nationalism, and the innovative artistry that characterized his work. Written for those interested in art, architecture, and cultural history, the book provides an in-depth look at how Gaudí's personal beliefs and societal influences shaped his monumental creations. |
