  • General view of White Hall,   Sitora-I-Mohi-Hosa, 1911, Bukhara, Uzbekistan, pictured on July 13, 2010 in the morning. Alim-khan, last Emir of Bukhara, built this summer palace, 4 km north of the city, in a mixture of Russian and Oriental style using Russian architects. The "White Hall" takes its name from its snow white ganch decor made by a group of master craftsmen directed by Usto Shirin Muradov. The mirrors panels on walls contoured with "pearling" or carved ganch look especially beautiful. Bukhara, a city on the Silk Route is about 2500 years old. Its long history is displayed both through the impressive monuments and the overall town planning and architecture. Picture by Manuel Cohen.

  • A cameo in white glass with a blue glass back, with a carved effigy of a Christian woman, 10th - 11th century, from the 1988 excavations led by Francois Blary, from the North section of the upper courtyard in the kitchen area at the medieval castle of Chateau-Thierry, Picardy, France. The first fortifications on this spur over the river Marne date from the 4th century and the first castle was built in the 9th century Merovingian period by the counts of Vermandois. Thibaud II enlarged the castle in the 12th century and built the Tour Thibaud, and Thibaud IV expanded it significantly in the 13th century to include 17 defensive towers in the walls and an East and South gate. The castle was largely destroyed in the French Revolution after having been a royal palace since 1285. In 1814 it was used as a citadel for Napoleonic troops. Picture by Manuel Cohen

  • Masia Freixa, built 1896, in the Parc de San Jordi, Terrassa, Catalonia, Spain. This modernist building was initially a spinning mill, at the time when Terrassa was an important centre for woollen fabrics during the industrial revolution. It was restored 1907-1914 by Louis Muncunill i Parellada, and became the family home of textile industrialist Joaquim Freixa i Argemi. Inspired by Gaudi, this building started Terrassenc modernism. The form combines traditional building and materials with modern Catalan vaults, shapes, and materials. Traditional arcades form porches on the south (seen here) and west sides, but with a parabolic shape first explored by Gaudi and windows that reflect this shape. The 4 storey octagonal white tower is embedded with crystals, reflecting traditional methods. Picture by Manuel Cohen

  • PARIS, FRANCE -  MAY 16 : A detail of the domes of Sacré Coeur, on May 16, 2008, in Montmartre in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, France. After the Franco-Prussian War in 1871, the basilica was built on the highest spot in Paris as an atonement and a symbol of national confidence. Designed by Paul Abadie, 1812-84, in a Romanesque-Byzantine style, the construction began in 1875 but was not completed until 1914, when the outbreak of the 1st World War delayed the official opening until 1919. Sacre Coeur is built of travertine stone which exudes calcium and always remains white, clearly seen here on a spring evening.  (Photo by Manuel Cohen)
