Andrea Palladio (1508­–1580), one of the most famous architects of all time, published two enormously popular guides to the churches and antiquities of Rome in 1554. Striving to be both scholarly and popular, Palladio invited his Renaissance readers to discover the charm of Rome’s ancient and medieval wonders, and to follow pilgrimage routes leading from one church to the next. He also described ancient Roman rituals of birth, marriage, and death. Here translated into English and joined in a single volume for the first time, Palladio’s guidebooks allow modern visitors to enjoy Rome exact

Andrea Palladio (1508-1580) hat ein umfangreiches architektonisches Gesamtwerk hinterlassen, das besonders heute stark diskutiert wird. Zu seinen vorwiegend im Veneto gebauten Villen pilgern jährlich Tausende von Kunstinteressierten. In der Folge verbreitete sich der Palladismus in der ganzen Welt. Seinen Ruhm begründeten aber auch die aus eigener Bautätigkeit und aus Überlegungen zu architektonischen Grundsatzfragen entstandenen «Vier Bücher zur Architektur». Im ersten Buch bespricht Palladio alle Grundelemente, die bei der Errichtung eines Gebäudes zu beachten sind. Das zweite Buch i

In her small upstate New York town, Molly Howe is admired for her beauty, poise, and character, until one day a secret is exposed and she is cruelly ostracized. She escapes to Berkeley, where she finds solace in a young art student named John Wheelwright. They embark on an intense, all-consuming affair, until the day Molly disappears–again. A decade later, John is lured by the eccentric advertising visionary Mal Osbourne into a risky venture that threatens to eviscerate every concept, slogan, and gimmick exported by Madison Avenue. And much to John’s amazement, one of the many swept into O

An exploration of the design procedures and methodology of Andrea Palladio, arguably the most influential Renaissance architect. Even when Modernism dimmed interest in classical architecture, Palladio’s opus never ceased to attract attention. This book sets him in his context; discusses the theory of the orders, proportions, space composition, and facade design; and presents this material for practicing architects and students, so that the ideas can be applied in their architectural work today. 200 illustrations, 16 pages of color.

The Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio was one of the most influential figures that the field of architecture has ever produced. For classical architects, the term Palladian stands for a vocabulary of architectural forms embodying perfection and beauty. Of even greater significance than Palladio’s buildings is his treatise I quattro libri dell’architettura (The Four Books On Architecture), the most successful architectural treatise of the Renaissance and one of the two or three
