Castles and fortresses of medieval Europe Follow photographer Frédéric Chaubin as he embarks on a unique, century-spanning journey through Europe. Featuring images of more than 200 buildings in 21 countries, Stone Age. Ancient Castles of Europe presents the history and architecture of the most dramatic medieval castles of the continent in an unprecedented collection.
Building on the success of his foray into Soviet design with CCCP, Chaubin once again documents the afterlife of highly rational structures that seem out of place in a modern-day world. Precursors of Brutalism, these castles value function over form and epitomize the raw materials and shapes that would go on to define so much of architectural history.
Shot on film with a Linhof view camera, the collection is the outcome of five years of travel and investigation. Complete with a practical map and explanatory essay, its castles tell the story of 400 years, unfolding through the feudal Middle Ages into the 15th century.
A photographic study of decay as much as endurance, Stone Age traces the history of some of these singular structures that continue to enchant their audiences today and that occupy a distinct, mystical place in our collective imagination. The photographer and author Frédéric Chaubin was the editor-in-chief of the French lifestyle magazine Citizen K for twenty years. Since 2000, he has regularly published works on architecture, combining text and photography, and presented accompanying exhibitions and lectures. He approaches his architectural research through a historical lens. After his CCCP collection research, published in 2011, he has delved into the remains of the medieval world, with his TASCHEN title Stone Age. Ancient Castles of Europe. Frédéric Chaubin. Stone Age. 45th Ed.Hardcover, 15.6 x 21.7 cm, 1.10 kg, 448 pages ISBN 978-3-7544-0125-5 Edition: Multilingual (English, French, German)
