Architecture has always been a magnificent and much debated platform to express the spirit of the times, worldviews, everyday life, and aesthetics. This volume presents images of iconic urban architectures and townscapes that reflect the close and complex union between photography and architecture, between architect and photographer. Starting from the nineteenth century, it picks up positions, juxtapositions, and thematic fields bringing together the concrete, fundamental, and historic, looking also at structural axes, houses and homes, utopias, and the captivating transience of architecture against the test of time.
