Book Description
Buenos Aries boasts a number of impressive buildings in a range of architectural styles. But when Anat Meidan, an art collector with a passion for La Belle Époque, moved to the city, she was delighted to discover how much of the city's Art Nouveau architecture from the early 20th century had survived. The author set about researching these extraordinary buildings as well as the people who designed and built them. Working with Gustavo Sosa Pinilla, Meidan toured the city and documented its architecture, using a few well-placed connections to gain access to the interiors of private homes and buildings usually closed to the general public. In this meticulously researched, richly illustrated book, featuring hundreds of splendid photographs, the reader is invited to share the author's voyage around the city as she narrates a very personal account of her love affair with Buenos Aires.

Book Description
La influencia de la arquitectura francesa en la ciudad de Buenos Aires ha sido determinante en algunos períodos de su historia, especialmente a principios del siglo XX, cuando se construyeron las grandes residencias en la zona que se extiende desde Retiro hasta Recoleta y que culmina en torno a la plaza Carlos Pellegrini. El estilo predominante fue el del clasicismo francés de los siglos XVII y XVIII. Por ello se conoció a la ciudad como la “París de Sudamérica”. Las fotografías de Xavier A. Verstraeten recorren las casas que aún se mantienen en pie, la mayoría de ellas convertidas en imponentes sedes de embajada. Los textos de Fabio Grementieri, arquitecto especializado en patrimonio, enriquecen con sus datos históricos y detalles de la arquitectura y decoración este verdadero documento de un estilo de vida suntuoso que pertenece al pasado de la Argentina. Así, el libro recorre residencias como el Palacio Paz, el Palacio Anchorena, las Residencias Unzué, el Palacio Ortiz Basualdo, el Palacio Errázuriz, el Palacio Sans Souci, el Palacio Pereda, las Residencias Duhau, entre muchas otras.
