Pub Year 1997, See images for condition. About the book >.>.> Architectonisches Alphabet 1773 Book by Johann David Steingruber*Architectonisches Alphabet 1773* presents Johann David Steingruber?s alphabet and writing manual, published in 1773. The book belongs to a tradition of rare, carefully produced works that contain letters but are intended not only for reading: their forms invite close looking and contemplation. In its pages, letters become more than carriers of abstract meaning. Their sensual, pictorial and calligraphic qualities express the character of an age, turning each letter into a distinctive sign of its time. The book explores the contrast and exchange between letter as text and letter as image: concepts become pictures, and pictures become concepts, in a relationship described through the idea of *ut pictura poesis*?that a picture may be poetry, and vice versa. It also connects learning the alphabet and finding one?s spatial bearings with the formation of identity. As language and spatial awareness develop together, the ability to use language is likened to building with blocks or sand; in adult life, command of language is associated with constructing houses as signs of individual standing and intellectual capacity.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. First Printing thus [Stated]. The format is approximately 9.5 inches by 12.50 inches. 111, [1] pages. Illustrations. Translator's Notes. Books by J. F. Steinbruber, Notes. The dust jacket is in a plastic sleeve. This was first published in a Limited Edition by The Merrion Press, London, in 1972. A reprint of Steingruber's 4th and final book. An imaginative and ingenuous work offering plans for buildings based on the Roman alphabet. Born in 1702 and raised in Bavaria in a wealthy family of building contractors, German architect and agricultural inspector Johann David Steingruber learned masonry and architectural drawing from his father and uncle. He went from being a simple mason to a designer at the court of Marquis Christian Friedrich Charles Alexander of Brandenburg-Ansbach. Over the years he designed and directed work on a large number of buildings, including churches, schools, hospitals, town halls and other institutional buildings, as well as houses. Regarded as the founder of the Markgrafenstil -a style typical of many churches built in the 1700s, especially in Protestant areas of the Brandenburg region, characterized by a simple, typically Calvinist style-, Steingruber is best known for the fictional intricate illustrations of his 1773 Architectural Alphabet, in which he converted the alphabet into plans for a series of eccentric baroque buildings. Originally published in installments at Steingruber's own expense, the volume opens with its gloriously long title in an "arch of contents", the columns inscribed with thumbnail images of the letter buildings to come. Although the title page lists 1773 as the publication date, the last installment came in March 1774. In his lifetime, Steingruber published three other works, illustrated and described toward the end of this facsimile, but Architectonisches Alphabeth became his most famous. Steingruber dedicated his Architectural Alphabet to Christian Friedrich Carl Alexander, Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach, and his first wife Frederica Carolina. Steingruber had to be satisfied with his payment as an appointee court and public surveyor, and later principal architect of the board of works even though he went to the trouble of making sure that his employers' monograms and their associated buildings appeared in the span above the roman arch. There was not much chance of these letter-shaped edifices' being built. Nevertheless, Steingruber adds matter-of-fact descriptions to his elevations and plans, calling out heating, kitchen, toilet and servants' arrangements as if conferring with a prospective client ready to commission one of these typographic palaces. Who would not want a serif with a view? Or conduct guests on a tour of the bowl, capline, crossbar, stem, stroke and tail of the property.…

3 works, ad 2 in 2 parts, in 1 volume. A remarkable volume containing three rare print series on architecture, architectural ornament and garden ornament, all published by the important Augsburg engraver and print publisher Johann Andreas Pfeffel the elder (1674-1748). The title pages for the Danreiter explicitly note that he engraved its plates.Ad 1: First edition of Johann David Steingruber's first published architectural book, showing working drawings with plans, elevations and sections of town houses and palaces, mostly with scales. It includes several designs for a garden pavilion in an aristocratic park, lavish town houses for the haute bourgeois, and finally a ducal residence. Each design is shown in as much detail as possible. The grander houses are shown including streets and gardens. The Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach appointed Steingruber (1702-1787) court architect in 1734. In the course of his nearly 60-year tenure, he transformed the townscape of Ansbach following his own designs. He is best remembered for his playful Architektonisches Alphabet (1773), a remarkable series of designs in which each building has a ground plan based on a different letter in the alphabet.Ad 2: First and only edition of a very rare ornamental garden pattern book (part 2 is especially rare) by the recently appointed court gardener and inspector of the Salzburg gardens, Franz Anton Danreiter (1695-1760). In 1728 Danreiter was appointed court gardener and inspector to related buildings by the ducal bishop of Salzburg. He translated Dezallier's La theorie et la pratique du jardinage into German, helping introduce French garden design to German-speaking countries. His own designs in the present work show more than 100 ornamental and fanciful planting patterns on 42 plates, many including fountains. This was his first and rarest model book with garden plans for parterres. They show that far from endlessly repeating the strict symmetrical canon of French Baroque garden design, Danreiter developed a never-ending variety of ornamental designs which herald the German rococo.Danreiter served five successive bishops in Salzburg. Between 1727 and 1735 he also engraved a number of large-scale views of the city which represent a unique documentation of Salzburg in its 18th-century baroque glory.Ad 3: Rare 18th century copy of selections from the equally rare Diverses corniches choisies sur l'anticque, originally issued in 30 plates ca. 1670 by the ornamentalist and painter George Charmeton (1623-1674). It shows ornamental designs from classical Roman entablatures (architraves, friezes and cornices).The three works are printed on three different paper stocks, so there is no reason to suppose they were printed together. We have found no close match to the paper of the Steingruber: large monogram "4" and "G"(?) = --, cf. several marks in the group Heawood 3179-3231. The Danreiter must have been printed after 1728 and is on paper watermarked: shield bearing monogram (N superimposed on a reversed N?) = --, very close to Heawood 3220 (Augsburg and Ulm, 1731-1735). The paper of the Charmeton is unwatermarked. All were probably published before Peffel's death in 1748. The endpapers are watermarked: angel (with a staff or sword) in a wreath or flaming circle = "IHI", not found in the literature but mid- or late-18th-century in style.With an early manuscript list of contents on the front pastedown and a circular black armorial(?) library stamp on the first leaf (only the word "BIBLIOTHEK" is legible). In very good condition, with only a crease across the corner of a couple leaves and an occasional minor spot. The paper sides are foxed, with a small water stain and a few chips, but the binding is otherwise also very good. Three rare architectural and ornamental print series, especially valuable for the garden layouts.l Ad 1: Berlin Kat. 2006; Cicognara 676; VD18 90212959/VD18 13412477; WorldCat 839895051 (8 or 9 copies); not in BAL; Fowler; ad 2: Berlin Kat. 3332 (part 1, bound with part 2 of a different work); Millard coll.

Ringlin after Steingruber, plate 1 with the German title in and French title flanking a decorative cartouche, each further plate with a heading in German and French. Ad 2: with 2 engraved illustrated title pages from the same plate (ruins in a landscape, with 2 putti holding a drape with the title, the second title page with "Anderer Theil" in the foot margin) plus 22 and 20 numbered illustration plates showing garden plans, decorations, fountains, etc. Ad 3: with 12 engraved plates, including the title page, the illustrations showing the entablatures of various classical Roman buildings.
