Descriere magazin:
A consortium of
British architects and their patrons rebelled against the early eighteenth century\'s Baroque excesses and turned instead toward the Renaissance works of Andrea Palladio for inspiration. These Neo-Palladians guided the course of
British architecture toward classical principles, and the
Vitruvius Britannicus (
British Vitruvius) reflects their vision. A sumptuous collection of magnificent copperplate engravings, it depicts great English country houses and public buildings. Published between 1715 and 1725 in a three-folio set, the
Vitruvius Britannicus documents in meticulous detail many of the buildings from the previous two centuries. Its 300 illustrations include facades, ground plans, exterior elevations, and perspective views. Featured buildings include those designed by Inigo Jones, the seventeenth-century architect who introduced Palladianism to England; the work of Sir John Vanbrugh, whose innovative Classical-Revival architecture retained a Baroque flair; and contemporary designs, including those of the author, Scottish architect
Colen Campbell. The popularity of this volume fostered the development of the Neo-Palladian movement, and Vitruvius
Britannicus continues to influence architects and designers. Handsome and modestly priced, this new edition is an essential complement to any design library.
