Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cyclopaedia of Works of Architecture: In Italy, Greece, and the Levant Much care has been given to the illustrations: thev are as full as they could well be without taking too much space from the text. The editor has tried to show familiar monuments in new aspects as far as was practicable. Some well-known subjects have been omitted in favor of others which it is less easy for the reader to find elsewhere, and many less conspicuous monuments are presented for the sake of some artistic interest or of their significance in the sequence of architectural forms. The illustrations have been made directly from photographs when this could be done, or have been drawn for use here: very few are repro ductions of other illustrations, and for these credit is given. In two im portant instances special effort has been made to show what has hereto fore been neglected - the drawing of the rear of St. Peter's, carefully constructed from photographs and measured plans, gives the church as it would appear if the houses that crowd about its lower parts were pulled away, and shows it therefore as Michael Angelo intended it to appear, but as it is never seen. The photogravure of the interior of Sta. Sofia was prepared because the composite photographs that are in cir culation show this noble interior with broken lines and distorted propor tion, and the only published drawings which give an adequate impression of it, those of Fossati, are unsuited for reproduction.

Download or read book Pliny the Elder and the Emergence of Renaissance Architecture written by Peter Fane-Saunders and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-07-12 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Naturalis historia by Pliny the Elder provided Renaissance scholars, artists and architects with details of ancient architectural practice and long-lost architectural wonders - material that was often unavailable elsewhere in classical literature. Pliny's descriptions frequently included the dimensions of these buildings, as well as details of their unusual construction materials and ornament. This book describes, for the first time, how the passages were interpreted from around 1430 to 1580, that is, from Alberti to Palladio. Chapters are arranged chronologically within three interrelated sections - antiquarianism; architectural writings; drawings and built monuments - thereby making it possible for the reader to follow the changing attitudes to Pliny over the period. The resulting study establishes the Naturalis historia as the single most important literary source after Vitruvius's De architectura.

Download or read book Roman Architecture and Urbanism written by Fikret Yegül and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-31 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since antiquity, Roman architecture and planning have inspired architects and designers. In this volume, Diane Favro and Fikret Yegül offer a comprehensive history and analysis of the Roman built environment, emphasizing design and planning aspects of buildings and streetscapes. They explore the dynamic evolution and dissemination of architectural ideas, showing how local influences and technologies were incorporated across the vast Roman territory. They also consider how Roman construction and engineering expertise, as well as logistical proficiency, contributed to the making of bold and exceptional spaces and forms. Based on decades of first-hand examinations of ancient sites throughout the Roman world, from Britain to Syria, the authors give close accounts of many sites no longer extant or accessible. Written in a lively and accessible manner, Roman Architecture and Urbanism affirms the enduring attractions of Roman buildings and environments and their relevance to a global view of architecture. It will appeal to readers interested in the classical world and the history of architecture and urban design, as well as wide range of academic fields. With 835 illustrations including numerous new plans and drawings as well as digital renderings.
