Beschreibung

Chatto and Windus, 1910. Hardcover, 509 pp. "A New Edition, with six hundred and thirty-nine illustrations". Translated from the German of A. Rosengarten. The book is divided into 3 'books': Ancient Architecture (pp 1 - 108); Romanesque architecutre (pp 163 - 287); Modern Styles of Architecture (pp 373 -501). Index, illustrations. In good condition/ NO dust jacket. Green decorated cloth covered boards with gold columns on front. Nicking and fraying to cloth at top and bottom of spine and corner tips and light overall scuffing. Binding tight. Pages lightly aged but otherwise unmarked with occasional light spotting and creasing. NOT Ex-Library. NO remainder marks. [From Barnes and Noble overview] The range of the book is extensive, and its numerous illustrations, which include many of great beauty, are from well-known examples. It is sufficiently minute and exact to be valuable as a handbook to the professional student; but it is at the same time so free from burdensome technicalities that it will probably interest many cultivated non-professional readers to whom architecture is a subject with which they would gladly gain a certain amount of familiarity.
