"The latest work by James Gulliver Hancock "All the buildings in Paris" is like a declaration of love to the city of Enlightenment. For him, the capital now has no secrets."
-La Mode a la Francaise

"Hancock's books is a love letter to the city's diverse architectural styles and streetscapes told through his unique and charming drawings."
-Chocolate & Croissants

"Gothic, Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Beaux Art, Early Modern and right up to Contemporary, the architeture of the most beautiful city in the world is presented in a precise and yet clearly freehand style, colored in with (I assume) watercolors in gorgeous combinations . . . Devoid of people and (largely) promotional come-ons, the book invites you into a quiet Paris all to yourself...like walking through the city at dawn before anyone is out."
-Paris Blog

"If you loved his [James Gulliver Hancock] previous titles based on the buildings of London and NYC, you'll no doubt enjoy this new hardcover too. If you're into art/illustration, architecture, and travel, this is a real treat either way."
