The Venetian architect Giacomo (James, Jacques) Leoni was a prominent exponent of the Palladian revival in architecture in England. 1715-20 he published the first complete English edition of Palladio's work provided with his own engraved illustrations interpreting those of Palladio, and trilingual text in Italian, English and French. The present edition was published in Hague with the French text only, and without the notes by Inigo Jones announced on the title page. Berlin cat. 2599-
