| Summary: | This book explores the work of Renzo Mongiardino (1916-1998), reinforcing his place as a legend in the field. Mongiardino has a background as an acclaimed set designer for stage and film, which had an effect on his work lush interiors with trompe l'oeil finishes, museum-quality antiques, sumptuous fabrics and a bewitching theatricality. Clients included elite members of the worlds of fashion, art and society, including Agnelli, Rothschild, Peretti, Radziwill and Onassis. 'Cabana', the au courant interiors magazine, investigates Mongiardino's work with stunning new photography (many interiors are published here for the first time), thoughtful prose and animated layouts. This is the most contemporary book on the creations of the modern master and will appeal to connoisseurs of beauty and interior design. |
