Abstract

The result of a research project developed by the Mantua campus of the Politecnico di Milano, the book presents an image of the city through its architecture on the basis of a photographic survey covering all of the urbanized area. Documented by the photographs of Marco Introini and the descriptions of Luigi Spinelli, the one hundred buildings selected range from medieval works still present in the city’s fabric to the Burgo paper mill, designed and built by Pier Luigi Nervi, one of Italy’s most interesting examples of modern architecture.
