Now he's set his sights on London a city that feels at once ancient and modern traditional and quirky homey and hip. Made with the same energy as NYC Storefronts this book has a distinctly English vibe. It divides the city into five navigable sections (Central North East South and West) and highlights its diverse mix of cultures. In each chapter is a sprawling selection of shops brought to life by Holland's charming drawings and London - based journalist Rosie Hewitson's captivating descriptions. This collection of more than two hundred shopfronts runs the gamut of old to modern - day London: stately bookshops umbrella stores tailors hatters and pubs but also trendy restaurants bars and boutiques. A number of places are deeply profiled including storied jazz club Ronnie Scott s; Hatchards the UK's oldest - surviving bookshop; Caribbean record store People's Sound; Rowan's Tenpin Bowling Alley; beloved Turkish restaurant Mangal II; and gender - affirming hairdressers Open Barbers; each one is lovingly detailed in Holland's gentle tones. An informative guide to discovering all the Big Smoke has to offer this is also a lasting keepsake for London lovers of every age and style.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: London Shopfronts Illustrations Of The City's Best - Loved Spots\u003cbr\u003e\nBrand: Prestel\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9783791389158\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 176 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 10\/3\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: “Painting \u0026amp; Art Manuals” For Hobbyist And “How-To” Manuals)","brand":"Prestel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49627811021105,"sku":"IN-G-9783791389158","price":20.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9783791389158.jpg?v=1724981790","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9783791389158-london-shopfronts-illustrations-of-the-citys-best-loved-spots","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
