Florence − capital of Tuscany, birthplace of the Renaissance and a UNESCO Word Heritage Site − is shown in this book through the depictions of its architectural wealth, iconic monuments and its less well-known areas. From churches to museums, gardens to palaces, and small squares to twisting narrow streets, Fabrice Moireau has created a vivid portrait of the city where the Medicis, Leonardo da Vinci and Dante Alighieri once lived. The artist's palette reveals the grandeur of the history of Florence, as well as its charms and atmosphere.

In 1952 Ben Shahn said to Marian Parry, "Marian, make the most beautiful book you can and I'll take it to Curt Valentin." She made The Paris Book, which she had conceived of sometime prior to this prompting, and as promised, the book was presented to Curt Valentin who was moved to publish it. Mr. Valentin, who had published several significant, limited edition books in which the writings of poets and novelists were accompanied by illustrations made by contemporary artists, passed away the following year and The Paris Book was never published. Un-Gyve will reproduce this most beautiful book of watercolours in their exquisite detail exactly as was intended. The Paris Book represents Marian Parry's affinity for the city in which she spent the first years of childhood; twenty extraordinary illustrations accompanied by her own hand-lettered prose -- the story of an odd bird and his discovery of Paris--Provided by publisher.

"In Rome there is no guide, only one's curiosity about places, monuments and sculptures, as unveiled in this collection of watercolours by Fabrice Moireau. According to Dominique Fernandez, "one must leave it to chance and wander aimlessly", because pleasure "is found where least expected". With only their quill and brush, the author and illustrator capture the different faces of Rome-Ancient Rome, Imperial Rome, rome of the Baroque, as well as modern Rome -- and invite us to discover the masterpieces of this "eternal city"."--P [4] of cover
