ROME: PORTRAIT OF A CITY by Giovanni Fanelli (taschen £50)

IF ROME were a model, it would be Kate Moss. From its dramatic setting to its classical features, it has to be one of the most photogenic places in the world. Explore the home of coffee and the Catholic church in this packed collection and delight in spreads of the Sistine Chapel and film stills from La Dolce Vita. Leafing through this book is as enjoyable as eating a huge bowl of spaghetti carbonara.
