Grand Interiors

Whether imperial residences or public buildings, Massimo Listri excelled at chronicling intricate interiors. Florence-based Listri's works were shown in the collections of the Palazzo Reale, Milan, and the Morgan Library, New York, among others. This exceptional volume showcases great European halls from Trinity College, Dublin to the Vatican Museum and the Opéra Garnier in Paris. Much like a portraitist, Listri used every nuance to support the complete narrative. Nothing is lost yet Listri's photographs somehow never overwhelm or seem cluttered. Every aspect is rendered precisely and clearly, showing us how each finely crafted feature contributes to the magnificence of the overall effect.
