| Synopsis: |
The studies in this volume offer the first serious examination of Sir Edwin Lutyens's hugely significant work beyond Great Britain. With the exception of New Delhi, far less attention has been paid to Lutyens's work abroad than to his work at home. Sir Edwin Lutyens (1869-1944) made his name by designing romantic vernacular weekend houses at home in southern England: however, he also responded to opportunities offered by Britain's Imperial ambitions abroad. The studies in this volume offer the first serious examination of Sir Edwin Lutyens's hugely significant work beyond Great Britain. With the exception of New Delhi, far less attention has been paid to Lutyens's work abroad than to his work at home - some buildings, indeed, being almost unknown - although it is arguable that his finest creations, works of transcendent humanity and originality within the Western tradition, are to be found along the former battlefields of the Western Front and the hot plains of India. |
