The Necessary Art
The real monument to
Pevsner is that he made architecture enter the stream of public consciousness; uniquely he elevated architecture where it was discussed on a par with other arts.
(SIR DENYS LASDUN)
Sir Nikolaus Pevsner. the architectural historian and author of the massive Buildings of England series, died last month. Stephen Games assesses the influence of this pioneering scholar on our understanding of buildings as an art and a daily pleasure, with contributions from pevsner's family, friends and colleagues.
