This wonderful volume offers a comprehensive discussion of all the published works on architecture published for use in the German-speaking parts of Western Europe up to 1648, some of them original treatises written in German, others editions of Vitruvius or of treatises and other writings by such authors as Alberti, Hondius, Serlio, Vignola and Vredeman de Vries. The authors include full bibliographical descriptions of all the editions of these of which they are aware, and offer in the process the best bibliographical treatment so far attempted of each of the notoriously rare editions of the architectural writings of the German-Swiss architectural theorist Hans Blum. The volume is also particularly well-illustrated with excellent images taken from all the books featured. Large folio. 741 + (1)pp, many photo ills. Publisher?s cloth.
