Travelling repeatedly between Scotland and the Riviera, the Edinburgh architect MacGibbon became fascinated by the ancient buildings of Provence. He describes and draws its Roman monuments, the distinctive Romanesque churches and cloisters of the region, fortified towns and castles, and the way later builders altered and enlarged older naves and towers, all with an architect’s eye for structure and proportion.
