Mmmmm...great.


This is perhaps the most incredible photograph that i have ever seen. From Jean-Louis Cohen's 'Le Corbusier and the Mystique of the USSR', the image is subtitled 'The unveiling of the Palace of Soviets' model, Paris, 1931.'.

I am really interested in this picture. I am currently researching about architects that have worked in Le Corbusier office between 1930-32. Owen do you have information about James Whale?
