It is true that hurried tourists dart into Seville on their little trip be- tween steamers, and touch perhaps at Granada and Cordova on their way back to Gibraltar. Madrid also is not unknown, though why, except for the Prado, remains a mystery. Now and then strayed revellers from San Sebastian venture across the Pyrenees even to Bil- bao, and at the other end of the mountain wall commercial agents come down to Barcelona and return. The great Spain of the old King- doms of Castile and Leon, of Aragon and Andalucia, the real Spain that hides itself away from the cities and the railways and the motor roads, this is left to itself, and it is well that it is so. Madrid, Barcelona, Bilbao are not Spain; they are only varying degrees of cosmopolitanism and the dead levelling of industrialism. Seville is indeed real, and Toledo, Segovia, Burgos, Salamanca, while there is a heart of Barcelona that has not wholly surrendered to coal and iron and their derivatives, capitalism and communism, but it is on the wide, windy plains of the great central plateau, in the amber and violet mountains of its borders and spurs, and in the rich lowlands of the Mediterranean shore that the real Spain of San Fernando and the Catholic Kings and Don Ouixcte still exists, and happily may be found by the venturesome and the un-circular-tripperized. Of course it is unfamiliarity that has bred the modern contempt for Spain, the strange illusion of its degeneracy and backwardness. It is both these things if you measure it by the standards of the indus- trial magnate and the commercial traveller and the efficiency expert, but a people must first be judged by their own established standards, and those of the Spanish people, as a race, are otherwise. It is argu- able that they have chosen a better way than others of their genera- tion; in any case, to estimate them and their civilization and ideals it is necessary to get outside all preconceived ideas not only as to our | i | % ‘ ‘1? . aa fo tee a © 4 . ee ; i < : = , Z + a ; Sees : : - own civilization, but as to theirs as well, for never has a people been more misrepresented by historians and travellers and essayists. Prac- tically all one hears of Spain is wrong, both as to the things that are praised and those that are blamed. It is the only country left on earth that, to the perceptive traveller, is new. Now the old Spain of evangelical religious faith, of aristocratic democracy, of austerity and courtesy and grave self-respect, the Spain of arid little farms, parched vineyards and gaunt mountain pastures; of tropical gardens and cloistered patios; of vast, ruined castles and white farm houses and friendly, immaculate inns; of shepherds and donkeys and caballeros and beggars, is the Spain that Mr. Soule has found, and his pictures are glimpses of this interior Spain. You will not find these subjects in the photograph shops or 1n the pages of the Geographical Magazine, but you will find them in Spain if you once leave the tourist track. Not that Mr. Soule has disdained the major architecture of the larger towns; he gives his examples of the baroque (spontaneous for once) and the fantastic plateresque that are so char- acteristically Spanish, but chiefly he pursues the vernacular archi- tecture of farms and inns and the narrow streets of little villages, that is not really architecture at all from an academic point of view, but just the straightforward, instinctive building of grave and kindly men behind whom hes the creative tradition of two thousand years. Spanish architecture is incomparable, Moorish, Romanesque, Gothic, Plateresque, Rococo; and whatever its source or genre is trans- formed by Spanish temperament into something quite racial and unique, but side by side grows a quite different thing, and that is the modest building of the poor farmer and the undistinguished denizen of the town. Here is the art of building reduced to its simplest and plainest forms, and the collection of photographs which, for the first time, does this work due honour, is a wholesome lesson for architects of small things (actually more vital and important than the big things) and is a stimulus and inspiration as well. Consider the simplicity of the materials and the forms. Rough rubble, either left gray and silvery or washed a thousand times with white, yellow, sienna or rose-red lime; brown, natural wood, and I] rough tiles of every possible shade, from raw umber and dull ochre, through burnt sienna to murrey and the dull purple of wine-lees. There is little brick and less cut stone, while ornament is most spar- ingly used; a roughly carved capital here and there, a door archi- trave, a coat of arms, there is little more, and the effect comes from instinctively good proportions, a perfect designing and placing of doors and windows, and a picturesqueness of composition that is so good it could not be premeditated. The Spaniard understands the wall and the roof as does no one else: he can build up his flat wall of rub- ble, cover it with a toned whitewash, pierce it with a door and five windows, add a balcony and two “rejas” of perfect iron-work, crown the whole with a sweeping roof of tawny tiles, plant two cypresses and an almond tree near by, and produce a composition that is the despair of the trained and cultured architect. No matter where you go you find this sort of thing at every turn, whether in the dim calles of Seville, the gray alleys of Toledo, the ochre and umber streets of Segovia, or in the tropical towns of Anda- lucia or the bleak barrens of Aragon and Castile. Nor does it matter what century gave it birth; it is all good and of a piece, down through the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, even into the nineteenth. It is only the last thirty years that have seen the death of the old tradition and the coming in of the morbid affectations of architects and specu- oP) lators, and the blasting horror of the “Barcelona Style,” with its omi- nous culmination in the abortive Church of the Sagrada Famiglia. Pictures such as these are for students and creators of the real architecture of a people; not for copying, but for mental and spiritual lumination. Spain can teach much in this direction, perhaps more than any other country, but the real Spain of today can teach more to these who will listen, and that is the fundamental qualities in decent Christian civilization that, once achieved, will instinctively express themselves in a building art of this nature. Spain is an exemplar of the saving of real things while the unreal pass by, and something of this quality is revealed through such pictures as Mr. Soule has brought together. RAUPH ADAMS CRAM, Boston, Mass., January 6, 1923. Il FOREWORD It was my good fortune, on a trip for professional study through the Mediterranean Countries of Europe during the spring of 1922, to travel some four thousand miles by automobile through the Iberian Peninsula. The pictures contained in this volume are a selection from some four hundred photographs taken throughout the entire country, and no effort has been made to confine the subject matter to any specified style or period, except that those dealing with the Baroque, Churrigueresque and Moorish periods have been purposely omitted as having little or no application in the Architecture of today. I believe that these photographs give a good general idea of the variety and delightful charm of the minor achitecture of this region, and are, I believe, quite typical of the country as a whole, owing to the fact that travelling by auto made possible the inspection of a great deal of territory not usually seen by the tourist who must perforce submit to the agonies of the Spanish railroads. I wish to express here my sincere thanks to Sigs. Rafael Arevalo and Jose Granados, both young architects of Seville; to Messrs. Paul Wenzel and Maurice Krakow, the publishers of this volume; to my two partners, John Frederic Murphy and T. Mitchell Hastings; and particularly to my brother-in-law, Lockwood de Forest, Jr., for their advice and criticism in the preparation of this work.

CMa: N this magnificent publication, size 12% x 16, Mr. Newcomb has featured by especially taken photographs and carefully made detail drawings, all that remains of the Spanish Missions which were erected by the padres of the Franciscan Order on the Pacific Slope between the years 1769 and 1823. Altogether twenty-one Missions are illustrated, among them Santa Barbara, San Juan Capistrano, San Gabriel, San Fernando, San Antonio de Padua, San Luis Rey, etc. The book is the only document on the subject that has ever been produced, and the publishers believe that it will prove of unusual interest to architects and those who are interested in the Missions of California. Handsomely bound, all Plaies on linen hinges Price, $18.00 Or The MINOR | ECCLESIASTICAL - DOMESTIC - GARDEN ARCHITECTURE of SOUTHERN SPAIN Photographs and Drawings by A olla NeW bl bie SEY With a Preface by BERTRAM GROSVENOR GOODHUE N this book the architecture of southern Spain has not been treated in an archeological or historic manner, but the author has succeeded in producing a collection of photographs and sketches which in the highest degree expresses the charm and romance of the minor architecture in this picturesque country. In this form, the publishers are convinced, the book will prove of practical value for reference in the architect's office, and at the same time will be a source of pleasure and inspiration to the layman. The historic monuments of Spain have been too well illustrated and described to warrant another book being devoted to them, but in every town and village are many charming examples of small dwellings, churches and palaces that have hitherto been completely neglected by the writers of books. These smaller buildings we believe to be more useful and adaptable to the architecture of today than the greater ones. In general character they are quite similar to buildings of a corresponding class in Italy. What the details may lack in refinement is amply made up for in general proportions and by the lively imagination shown in the application of old and new motif. In the towers and domes of the smaller churches especially is shown a grace and variety of form that is not to be equaled in any but Spanish countries.

Prentice.

They are sketches crowded with architectural information, soaked in an atmosphere intensely Spanish, and as fresh as the sparkling, Springtime sunlight in which they were made. The subject matter varies from cathedrals to modest farmhouses, from the delicate brickwork of Zaragosa to the massive stonework of Avila, the ragged riverside of Gerona to the architectural splendor of Salamanca and Leon. A distinct effort has been made by the author to find unconventional points of view and to uncover material which has heretofore been neglected. There are unsung little churches, scattered bits of overlooked detail, numerous handsome gateways, bridges and church towers. The reproduc- tions have been made the same size as Mr. Chamberlain's original sketches, and are printed on the highest grade of plate paper. $10.00 net Spanish Interiors, Furniture and ‘Details FROM THE 14TH TO THE 17TH CENTURY With an introduction by HAROLD DONALDSON EBERLEIN HIS book offers a mass of valuable material such as has not heretofore been available.
