Summary

The book rescues for the first time the work, the figure and the thought of the author of the 1880 building in which the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, the Palacio de Bellas Artes is located. Emilio Jéquier was a Chilean-French architect emblematic in the configuration of the urban imaginary of the Republic, stamped in the capital of Chile the modernizing impetus that permeates the consolidation of national identity. His work, widely documented in this book through photographs and plans, constitutes a monumental heritage that identifies the city of Santiago through buildings such as the Estación Mapocho, the Casa Central of the Universidad Católica, the Bolsa de Comercio, among others. Illustrated with unpublished photographs of the time (1910), the edition also has current records, as well as a timeline that contextualizes the life of Jéquier in both Chile and France.
