This book offers a visual tour of the three most representative palaces of the house of Alba: those of Liria in Madrid, Las Dueñas in Seville, and Monterrey in Salamanca, and of the summer residences of the family in Ibiza (S'Aufabaguera) and San Sebastián (Arbaizenea). All these houses, where are preserved valuable works of art, have been personally decorated by Maria del Rosario Cayetana Fitz-James Stuart y Silva, 18th Duchess of Alba, current head of the noble house. From 1948 to 1956, the Duchess herself was also the architect of the rebuilding of the Palace of Liria after its almost total destruction in the Spanish Civil War.

This publication provides us with an architectural sketch of each building and with a guide for a journey through large format photographs expressly taken for this publication along with other images from the personal album of the Duchess.
