Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Fine. 1st Edition. Condition: (see pics.) The book is a large A3 coffee-tabled size book and fully illustrated throughout. Synopsis: This beautifully illustrated book is concerned with the fundamental principles and various aspects of Classical Architecture, including a detailed, illustrated glossary that is almost a dictionary in itself. The author describes in clear, straightforward, jargon-free language the origins of Classical Architecture in Greek and Roman Antiquity, and outlines its continuous development, through its various manifestations during the Renaissance, its transformations in Baroque and Rococo phases, its re-emergence in eighteenth-, nineteenth-, and twentieth-century Neo-Classicism, and its survival into modern times. The text and illustrations celebrate the richness of the Classical architectural vocabulary, grammar, and language, and demonstrate the enormous range of themes and motifs embraced by the subject.
