Second printing of German architect David Gilly's seminal and famous work on country and rural architecture. The present work is one of the most successful examples of architecture integrating urban and regional planning and architecture and is probably the most important contribution to the development of Prussian Classicism. Gilly had extensive technical knowledge particularly of wooden roof structures. ""One of the trendsetters within the late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century electorate was David Gilly (1748-1808), a second generation Huguenot whose family had come from Provence. He established the theory and practice of rual architecture in Brandenburg-Prussia"" functionality and utility were paradigms by which he desgined buildings. Through his son (1772-1800), Gilly influenced the famous romantic-classicist Klarl Friedrich Schinkel and his school."" (Finney, Seeing Seeing beyond the word: visual arts and the Calvinist tradition, p. 272). David Gilly built the two castles Paretz (1796) and Freienwalde (1798) for the king of Prussia.

Fine later edition of Pozzo’s important architectural work containing instructions for how to apply and effectively use perspective in in painting and architecture. It is considered one of the earliest treaties on perspective in art and architecture. The increasingly complex architectural demonstrations displayed in the present work is a fine testament to the author's belief that beauty in representation originates from suitably proportioned architecture. The work was first published in 1698 and went through editions, even into the 19th century, and has been translated from the original Latin and Italian into numerous languages such as French, German, English, and Chinese thanks to Pozzo's Jesuit connection. Graesse V, p. 429.(Brunet IV, 984 - The first edition).

First edition. The first volume concerns Fauburg Saint-Germain, volume II: Luxembourg, Cité, Fauburg Saint-Antoine et Marais.""In his clear and rational Architecture françoise, a four-volume work published from 1752 to 1756, he covered the past century and more of French buildings in and near Paris, setting them in their historical context and providing a wealth of detailed information that would otherwise have been lost. In the preface, he remarked, ""I have used simple terms and a popular style with the intention of being understood by layman and artist alike"" having noticed that recent books about architecture are either badly organised or overlong.""He originally planned eight volumes, but only the first four were published. The work brought him to official notice"" he was inducted into the Académie Royale d'Architecture in 1755 and appointed architect to Louis XV."" (wikiwand.com).""Le grand mérite de ce livre est de nous conserver les dessins de nombre d'édifices qui sont oujourdhui ou entièrement détruits ou tout à fait dénaturés"" malheureusement l'ouvrage, qui devait avoir 8 vol. et renfermer 1200 pl., n'a pas été terminé...""(Brunet I,977).

First edition of the only extensive Danish work of architecture, a Baroque masterpiece that is of great international importance.No-one has done as much for the understanding of Danish architectural heritage and building construction as Lauritz de Thura (1706-1759), one of the most important Danish architects ever to have lived. His magnificent magnum opus is not only of national importance but is also internationally significant, as much of his inspiration came from his travels abroad. He is responsible for bringing the Baroque style to Denmark, where he let it flourish for longer than it did in other countries. He kept developing it, in spite of the fact that it was losing terrain to the new rococo style that so quickly became so popular" also therefore, his great work constitutes one of the most important sources of Baroque style. In 1735, Thura received a royal grant that enabled him to travel around both Denmark and Europe to collect the necessary information for writing the most comprehensive work on architecture in Denmark. It took him more than a decade to gather all the information necessary for the monumental work, and finally, in 1746, he could publish the first part of the work, with the second following in 1749. The work contains 281 drawings, measurements, designs and prospects of Danish buildings, including, of course, the royal castles.Biblioteca Danica II, 602Graesse VII, 153 Brunet V, 851Katalog over Ejnar Christiansens efterladte bogsamling, no. 477 (""beautiful copy"").

Third edition of Daviler’s beautifully illustrated architectural work which significantly contributed to architectural education and theory and helped to standardize architectural education and practice in France. It provided detailed explanations and illustrations of classical architectural orders as defined by Renaissance architect Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola. It ""was the best work of its kind yet issued and soon superseded F. Blondel's Cours d'architecture"" (Fowler). It “was the standard work for architects (…) This book included a life of Vignola, a description of buildings by him and by Michelangelo, and a dictionary of architectural terms. Daviler also gave practical advice for the design and construction of buildings. His book contained plans and elevations of a typical house and designs of all architectural details such as door-ways, entrances, and windows, including even the design of gardens.” (Macmillan Encyclopedia of Architects, Vol. I, p. 504).
