Description :
In the late 1950s the Swiss photographer Ernst Scheidegger conceived a
book, Chandigarh 1956, illustrated with photographs of the growing city
he had taken on several trips to Chandigarh, but also with sketches and
drawings by Le Corbusier.
Unfortunately, this book remained unpublished.
Scheidegger's photographs of the construction of Chandigarh are now
published for the first time. Chandigarh 1956 also includes a facsimile
of the original mock-up for Chandigarh 1956, a fascinating document of
visual communication of architecture.
