photo comparisons

In my search for research and ideas for my new work..I stumbled upon this book called Two Brazilian Capitals: Architecture and Urbanism in Rio de Janeiro and Brasilia.

The book was published in 1973 but had a really nice collection of images that I thought were worth sharing. I scanned some of my favorites to share. For direct comparisons I am going to show current images throughout Rio after the old photographs. Not all the areas are direct references but I think they are worth showing for comparisons. Enjoy! Notes to come from the book soon...
