Sobre este item
National Gallery of Art, Washington / George Braziller, New York, first edition, 1993. Cloth, 4to, 32 cm,. xxiii, 545 pp, colour ills. From the blurb - "The Itallan books in the Millard coll ection constitute a significant segment of the architechural, archaeological, and topographical imprints published between 1486 and 1848 in various cities in the Italian peninsula; also included is a sampling of Spanish books, published between 1671 and 1800. As is abundantly clear from the previous volumes in this series, Italy was the epicenter of the architectural Renaissance and, if we include the ancient Roman Vitruvius, the source of virtually all the translated treatises found in the French, British, and northern European volumes. The Italian-speaking territories, and Rome in particular, were not only the wellspring of printed books and images but also the indispensable site to view the ruins of the ancient world and the triumphs of modern architecture. Included in this final volume are books illustrating Vitruvius’ ancient Rome, Leon Battista Alberti’s Renaissance Florence, and Andrea Palladio’s pre-baroque Venice. Also prominent are views of modern Rome by Michelangelo, Francesco Borromini, Carlo Fontana, and Antonio da Sangallo, superb examples of various projects for Saint Peter’s Basilica, and the standard works by Sebastiano Serlio and Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola. A highlight of the catalogue is an essay covering the approximately thirty books in the Gallery’s collection by Giovanni Battista Piranesi. Slight spotting to edges, otherwise Near Fine in a dustwrapper which is creased at the top of the front panel.
