Rare edition of this high-quality reprint, on 80-lb acid-free paper, of the original 3-volume work published between 1840 and 1866. "Paul Letarouilly's masterpiece, "Edifices de Rome Moderne," has been hailed as the most beautiful book on Renaissance architecture ever published. Letarouilly (1795 1855) devoted thirty-five years to drawing the plans, sections, elevations, perspectives, and large-scale details of gardens, convents, palaces, and churches of Renaissance Rome. His keen observational ability and immaculate drawing skills make this work an indispensable sourcebook. In many cases his etchings remain the only measured plans or elevations available; he also recorded buildings destroyed by later demolitions.".
