During the Nineteenth Century, many of Boston’s most famous architects studied at the Ecole de Beaux Arts in Paris; so that Boston’s rich visual heritage includes many elements of the French Architectural Styles brought back from Paris.
The façade of the Boston Public Library is molded on that of the Bibliothèque Saint Genevieve in Paris.
The statute, Bacchante and the Infant Faun, caused a huge uproar in 1896 when it arrived from France and was the origin of the term “Banned in Boston.”
Award winning photographer Jack Dzamba has created a book of fine art photography that shows Boston in a new light. The photographs in this book blend the stately beauty of Boston with the style and romance of Paris. Once you see this book, you will never look at Boston in the same way again.
