Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

3 volumes. First edition of a complete course on civil architecture, the best of the many works on art and architecture written by Francesco Milizia (1725-1798), born in Oria as a member of the best-established and richest family of the city. The impressive extent and impact of Milizia's work suggests that he devoted his life to the study of art and architecture, but that is not the case. His background was in medicine. As the author explains in his preface, architecture represents the most important science within society, civil architecture erecting temples, palaces, mausoleums, triumphal arches, theatres, fountains, gardens, etc., all signifying civilized society. Architecture presents the basis for all other arts as well, such as painting, sculpture, relief carving, perspective, ornamental arts, etc., while it is also a source of prosperity and wealth, promoting trade and commerce of building materials, and inspired scientists and artists from Vitruvius to Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raffael.According to Milizia, civil architecture must be: "bellezza, comodita, solidita", the three Vitruvian parts, also taught in the work in that order, making the book a wide-ranging study, beginning with the aesthetics of architecture and ending with a practical discussion of the materials and techniques available to builders. Milizia’s Principi exerted a tremendous influence. The first edition of the Principi was published anonymously, perhaps because of the controversy caused by some of Milizia's other works. The eight plates in vol. 3 "Delle volte", have their origins in the 1768 edition of the Vite de' piu celebri architetti, another work by Milizia. Following Milizia's death there were some important spin-off publications, the most important being a separate "atlas", fully and richly illustrating Milizia’s entire work in a series of 27 new plates. This "atlas", made by Giovanni Battista Cipriano (1766-1839) together with a descriptive text, is here also in its first edition. It includes an index of all illustrations with full references to the text of Milizia's three volume work, both in the present first edition of 1781, and the edition published at Bassano in 1785.Some wormholes in spines, bottom of the spine of volume 2 of Milizia's work a little damaged. Atlas binding slightly rubbed, front hinge a little weak and with some occasional browning. Both volumes are still in good condition. Rare with Cipriani's "Atlas".l I.
