Description

Delicious Metropolis brings together two of Wayne Thiebaud's most celebrated bodies of work: desserts and cityscapes.

Between the two, fascinating juxtapositions develop.

The layers of a Neapolitan cake echo the shadows cast across a street in the late afternoon.

The pastel hues of iced sponge cakes match California's candy-colored houses.

Curators, critics, and artists guide the reader through the book via insightful bite-size essays.

This gorgeous hardcover offers fans and newcomers a refreshing and accessible way to enjoy the oeuvre of this iconic American painter.

Complete with multicolored page edges evoking the layers of one of Thiebaud's mouthwatering cakes, it's a treat for art lovers, city-dwellers, and gourmets alike.
