Wholesale Capitol America

Master photographers Robert Lisak and David Ottenstein have created an unprecedented photographic portrait of all 50 US state capitol buildings, exploring architecture, interior spaces, furnishings, landscape settings, and urban locations. These portraits of America's state capitol buildings present shining examples of various architectural styles, including: • Neoclassical • Renaissance • Art deco • Bauhaus • Gothic • Modernist • Foreword by George Miles, curator of the Yale Collection of Western Americana, that elaborates on the themes and ideas subtly revealed by the precise and thoughtful photographs. • The 50 state capitol buildings are presented in order of their admission to the Union, to provide a historical flow. • Each building has a written introduction by Robert Morton, a premier editor of photography books and works on the history or art and architecture, that provides a rich context for the images. 288 pp | 250 color and b/w images
