In the middle of Pays d'Auge in the heart of Normandy, embedded in gently rolling hills covered with apple orchards and blooming meadows, stand witnesses of a proud past. Norman manor houses are true architectural jewels: romantic half-timbered structures, feudal country houses and defiant noble seats of stone, wood and brick. What unites them is their expressive charm and masterly building technique. The splendid photographs included in this volume present eighty of these houses, including some in the most remote areas of the province. Even today, many of these structures continue to serve Norman families as homes, and only a few are accessible to the public. To reveal the beauty and dignity of this architecture to a broader public, Regis Faucon has captured the picturesque charm of the houses; he integrates the medieval walls with the characteristic play of colour and the forms of this unique landscape - a work to look at, to enjoy and to dream about. The Author Art historian Yves Lescroart composed the text for this book. As curator of the Eugene Boudin Museum in Honfleur and Professor at the University of Caen, he has led the restoration of a number of historical monuments, including the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Rouen.TV journalist Regis Faucon was able to combine two of his passions in this volume: his love of his homeland, Pays d'Auge, and his love of photography. The particular charm of Faucon's work stems from his enthusiasm and devotion to details and atmosphere

    Book in perfect new condition/appearance and a great value at this price; the packaging was of the usual thoughtful protective sort that I've come to expect from this seller; and the shipping was super-duper fast, again, as always. I've purchased many books from this seller and have never been less than thrilled with any of them. Thanks again, fine Gardner folks!

    The Folio book I have been looking for for years arrived yesterday! It was beautifully packaged and is in perfect condition. The seller kept me informed and updated on each step of the sale and the book arrives sooner than expected. I will definitely be back to check Gardner’s Used Books for other fine books as I am updating my entire library to hardback, well made books. The price was reasonable compared with other sellers too! Happy customer here!
