Join us in welcoming Benajamin Riley, author of The Bridges of Robert Adam: A Fanciful and Picturesque Tour
In The Bridges of Robert Adam: A Fanciful and Picturesque Tour, Benjamin Riley takes readers on a magnificently illustrated tour across Britain, exploring the meaning of bridges to Robert Adam as both objects of beauty and architectural monuments. These are structures which contribute to the aesthetic power and ambience of a place; they were not intended to exist in isolation, but rather in symbiosis with the surrounding British landscape.
Featuring a combination of archival illustrations and watercolours as well as new photography from Dylan Thomas, it is a book infused with romance that will appeal to followers of Adam, Classical Architecture or anyone interested in a more holistic approach to design. Benjamin is the Managing Editor of the New Criterion magazine in New York.
Author Benjamin Riley will be signing books purchased at the Palm Beach Book Store.
RSVPs are encouraged but not required.
