A new age dawns at the beginning of the 15th century in Italy: the Renaissance. With Florentine beginnings, it blossoms in Rome and reaches a further highpoint in the Palladian Villas of the Veneto. Medieval Castles are transformed into modern mansions, and the houses of the rich become palaces. The Italian Renaissance radiates throughout Europe. The age of the Baroque also begins in Italy, finding its architectural highpoint in Versailles and other European royal residences, as well as the cloisters and churches of southern Germany and Austria. All this, and more, is to be found in this volume.

This book is a collection of fascinating photographs taken by Allan Tannenbaum, the chief photographer of the SoHo Weekly News, documenting an exciting era in New York City – the 1970s. The city was bursting with creative activity and things were happening all over. The Arab Oil Embargo was affecting the economy, and the Vietnam War was eroding respect for government. Pop art gave way to performance art, rock ‘n’ roll succumbed to disco music, sex was accepted and even glorified. New York in the 70s paints a complete and unadorned portrait of this very special era.
