註釋
"There are 112 color plates in this ... book which depict some of the most important work of such architects as Frank Lloyd Wright, Le Corbusier, Tange, Mies van der Rohe and Nervi. Each plate is accompanied by a commentary written by Kultermann which indicates the varied architectural solutions to industrial age problems. The plates are prefaced by a detailed introduction by Hofmann in which he examines a number of themes, including "the apparent conflict between the beautiful and the useful in architectural ideas through the ages" and the "connections between modern architecture and other art forms." He traces the development of modem architecture from three stylistic prototypes: a cast-iron factory (1848) by James Bogardus; the Crystal Palace (1851) by Joseph Paxton, and the Red House (1859) by Philip Webb"--Review in AJA Journal, March 1971.
