This composite work, a variorum edition, published in 1649 by Johannes de Laet, a professor at the University of Leyden and director of the Dutch East India Company (1581-1649), combines Vitruvius' De architectura with various texts more or less linked to Vitruvius and to architecture. After the dedication to Queen Christina of Sweden, de Laet printed his own Latin translation of the Henry Wotton's 1624 edition of Elements of Architecture. He continued with the edition of Vitruvius published in the enlarged version of 1552 by Jean de Tournes with the Annotationes by Guillaume Philandrier which makes up the majority of the abundant commentary of footnotes. Following that is Georg Bauer's (Agricola) The Epitome from the treatise on weights (De mensuris et ponderibus Romanorum atque Graecorum), written by the same Philandrier. He also relied and used Barbaro's commentary, the Plinianae exercitationes in Caii Julii Solini Polyhistoria (1629) by Claude Saumaise, and the works of the Hellenist and historian Gerardus Joannes Vossius. The book continues with unpublished notes by the mathematician and music historian Marcus Meibom on Vitruvius and his music theory, with an essay, also unpublished, by the mathematician Nicolaus Goldmann on the Ionic volute and with the Greek and Latin indices on De architectura and the Annotationes taken from Philandrier. After that is the 1612 publication, De verborum Vitruvianorum significatione and the Scamilli impares Vitruviani by Bernardino Baldi. At the end there is a passage from chapter 8 of Scamozzi's book VI (L'idea della architettura universale, 1615). And also, added to all these texts presented as the "must read list" of Vitruvian and architectural literature, are Alberti's De pictura, extracts of the De sculptura by Pomponius Gauricus, the commentary by Louis de Montjosieu on the sculpture and painting of the Ancients (Commentarius de sculptura, caelatura, scalptura, et pictura antiquorum, 1602), and finally a brief commentary by Claude Saumaise on two passages by Solin and a general index. Though de Laet, takes up the text of the 1552 edition of De architectura, and split up the books and chapters followed by Philandrier's Annotationes in their enlarged version, de Laet, nevertheless, didn't hesitate to delete a good number of Philandrier's illustrations in his commentary. On the other hand he reproduced with all its woodcuts the Digression on the orders (Digressio utilissima.), consecrating it in that way as a Vitruvian reference par excellence. De Laet's landmark work on Vitruvius, was daunting and slightly haphazard, as noted by Brunet, but the amount of scholarship he produced in one edition, is a measure of the effects of Vitruvius on the Enlightment and Renaissance.
