Description
Travel from home with this volume sharing the energy of Rio De Janeiro, authored by Bruno Astuto. Part of Assouline’s Classics Collection of highly collectible and immaculately illustrated volumes representing movements in style and chronicling chic. Each book is an inspiring journey to aesthetic bliss, a unique world all its own.
The rattling sound of a tram, the scent of freshly baked pastel de nata, the sight of the glistening waters of the Tagus—welcome to Lisboa. Portugal’s capital of labyrinthine streets, azulejo tiles, and blooming jacarandas beckons travelers with an indescribable charm and quiet nostalgia. Fado is Lisboa’s most iconic sound—a traditional music born in the city’s oldest neighborhoods and expressing its deep emotion and heritage. From the grandeur of Belém to the bohemian spirit of Bairro Alto, Lisboa has the heart of a poet and the pulse of a port in Europe.
Creatives, dreamers, and sunseekers from across the globe have congregated in this singular location, enticed by the plentiful seafood, celebratory atmosphere, and legacy of craftsmanship. This travel coffee table book is a love letter to Lisboa, with original imagery provided by locals Carlos Souza and Charlene Shorto and a foreword by Miguel Guedes De Sousa. Lisboa Luz paints a portrait of a resilient metropolis that has endured earthquakes and revolutions to become a sought-after destination for those looking for a good time.
