First edition (and the only printed in the 17th century), reprinted in 1743 and 1755. Francois Derand (1588-1644), a Jesuit architect, was especially remembered for his design of the church of Saint Louis and Saint Paul in the Rue St. Antoine in Paris, which was completed in 1641. "In his Architecture, which follows the precepts of Philibert De L'Orme he develops new standards for new stereometric exercises, and he subjects his study of stonecutting to a new mathematical logic, attempting to bring the discipline of the geometer to the traditional practice of the mason . In his dedication to Sublet des Noyers, the superintendent des batiments . he states that almost nothing has appeared on the art of measuring and cutting stones . although De L'Orme first treated of the subject, his work was too abbreviated, while Jousse's publication . was defective . But despite Derand's criticism of De L'Orme and Jousse, he remains solidly in their tradition and opposed to the innovations of Desargues and A. Boss, which were just beginning to take place. His emphasis is on the marriage of theory and practice . Derand's book is organized to permit the reader to acquire a detailed and accurate knowledge of the measuring and cutting of stone according to mathematical principles. But he cautions the reader that his book must be studied and read several times; that it is very difficult to apply theoretical knowledge to actual stonework. He notes that the knowledge of speculative geometry is not always similar to the traditional methods of practicing the craft . The unsigned, full-page illustrations, a series of finely engraved three-dimensional geometric line drawings with elaborate rococo frames and figure titles . contain an exhaustive series of exercises on vaults, wall openings, trompes and stairs. The book would become the standard work on stereotomy throughout the 17th and 18th centuries . It was listed in the inventories of many 18th century French libraries collections of architectural books. It was still recommended by J. F. Blondel." (Millard 60). "This is a handsome folio ." (Fowler 101). "Opera. alla quale bisogna accordare un metodo distinto per le grandi cognizioni pratiche e matematiche in essa raccolte" (Cicognara 490). Guilmard page 54; Kat. Berl. 2539.
