Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Reprint ; 222 pages : color illustrations ; 32 cm ; ISBN: 0500541876; 9780500541876 LCCN: 94-60276 ; LC: DC611.P958; Dewey: 944/.9/009734 ; OCLC: 31351445 ; red cloth in color photographic dustjacket ; front endpaper torn, with previous owner inscription ; "From one of the most famous coastlines in the world, the Cote d'Azur, to the hills and mountains of the Luberon, the variety and culture of its villages are astounding. It is in such small communities as those so beautifully photographed by Hugh Palmer that the true spirit of Provence is to be found. Brilliant sunlight slants across jostling terra-cotta roofs, and great plane trees cast velvety shade across ancient squares where the only sound is that of a moss-covered fountain. The Most Beautiful Villages of Provence stunningly evokes the beauty and spirit of Provence, which has drawn visitors to it from ancient times to the present day. Its enduring charm is here celebrated in Palmer's magnificent photographs of such gems as Riez and its fields of lavender or the mysterious cobbled paths of Crestet. These entrancing places, and many others, make this book a lasting tribute to a magical world. Featuring a special listing of hotels, restaurants, festivals, and markets, this book celebrates a part of the world that has entranced millions." ; "Hugh Palmer is one of Britain's leading photographers of architecture and gardens." ; Contents: Vaucluse and Bouches-du-Rhone: Ansouis, Bonnieux and Pont Julien, Crestet, Gordes, Lacost, Lourmarin, Menerbes, Oppede-le-Vieux, Roussillon, Seguret, Vaison-la-ROmaine, Venasque, Eygalieres, Les Baux-de-Provence -- Var and Alpes-Maritimes: Ampus, Bargeman, Cotignac, Entrecasteaux, Les Arcs-sur-Argens, Seillans, Toutour, Trigance, Villecroze, Eze, Le Brigue, Luceram, Peillon, Saint-Paul-de-Vence, Saorge -- Alpes-de-Haute-Provence: Annot, Colmars-les-Alpes, Entrevaux, Lurs, Meailles, Riez ; FAIR/FINE.
