An exquisitely photographed collection of the great houses and
mansions of the South.
In the tradition of Rizzoli's "Historic Houses of the Hudson
Valley" and "Great Houses of New England," "Great Houses of the
South" features a stunning array of newly photographed homes that
range over three centuries and are distinctive examples of the
architecture of the region. While in popular imagination the
"Southern Style" is embodied in the classic Southern plantation
house with its Greek Revival detailing--its stately white columns,
wide porch, and symmetrical shape--the houses themselves are much
more various and engaging, as shown in this important volume. From
stately Stanton Hall of Natchez, Mississippi, one of the most
magnificent and palatial residences of antebellum America; to
Longue Vue House and Gardens of New Orleans, the luxurious
Classical Revival-style home of Edgar and Edith Stern; to the
fabled Biltmore of Asheville, North Carolina, the opulent French
Renaissance-inspired chateau and Gilded Age estate of George
Washington Vanderbilt, this lavish volume is comprehensive in scope
and a landmark work of enduring interest to homeowners, architects,
architecture historians, and all those who love fine architecture.
