Each of the photographs aptly captures a prototypical subject. Colouring, the arrangement of lines, lighting, as well as the photographic means are employed with such precision that viewers feel as if they are in a visual laboratory where photography interprets architecture in its particular language.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn his essay, the author Wolfgang Meisenheimer looks into the fundamental principles of Chassot’s photographic world view and distinguishes between three layers of thought in which the work is rooted: the Euclidian orders, echoes of the modern philosophy of the lived body, and the legacy of Cubism from the beginnings of modern painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson (Australia) Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47431530938604,"sku":"9783777430065","price":155.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9783777430065.jpg?v=1774557604","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/products\/marcel-chassot-architecture-and-photography-9783777430065","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
