Family Houses in the Country by Gilles De Chabaneix Stated First Edition

About the Item

Family Houses in the Country by Gilles De Chabaneix and Alexandra D'Arnoux. Clarkson Potter, 2000. Stated first edition hardcover with dust jacket. In this charming and evocative book, Alexandra d’Arnoux provides portraits of country houses where decorative details combine with family traditions to create a memorable and timeless atmosphere. Family Houses in the Country takes us to gracious retreats in the woods and hillsides, real homes with the spirit of the families who delight in living with them. Author Alexandra d’Arnoux and photographer Gilles de Chabaneix travel through the United States, England, Scotland, Italy and France to find remarkable houses with beautiful, comfortable interiors. They visit a family homestead in California’s Napa Valley, a place of eternal summer, and experience the isolated, strangely welcoming manor of Kerdaoualas on a hill in Brittany as well as an architecturally intriguing home in Shropshire that once housed a medieval abbey. NPT Books, a division of Trent Antiques, has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.
