Description
This large-format book presents more than 100 buildings that shape Berlin's skyline. Thomas Rosenthal's spectacular photographs reach from the medieval Nikolaikirche to 21st century landmarks like the Humboldt Forum. Rosenthal captures iconic buildings and ensembles such as the Hufeisensiedlung, the Olympic Stadium, the Philharmonie, the Hackesche Höfe, and the Kino International. The extraordinary perspectives he often choses for his photographs invite you to rediscover the city's architecture. The accompanying texts by Christian Simon explain the history and significance of each building.
