'Inside Yucatán: Hidden Merida And Beyond'

Once symbolising the wealth of the peninsula, the crumbling structures in this exquisite edition are among hundreds of haciendas abandoned in the 1950s. 'Inside Yucatán: Hidden Merida And Beyond' brings to life twenty-seven of the properties along this trail, in varying states of ruin and revival. Their blend of colonial, Renaissance, medieval and Moorish styles is captured in stunning image by Guido Taroni. Specially commissioned maps of the region have been beautifully illustrated by artist Jesús Cisneros. This illuminating edition by Vendome — authored by Susana Ordovás, with a foreword by Martina Mondadori — celebrates the distressed beauty of these lost homes, and hails their revival.
