ansB8340

Vicenza, Giovanni Rossi, 1797. 4to. 24x17. 56 pp. + 25 engraved plates, 16 of which are folding. A fine, clean copy in contemporary boards, lacks front endpaper.

Palladio's elevations, sections, plans and detail drawings of the Roman Thermae, copied from the plates published by Richard Boyle, Third Earl of Burlington, and engraved by Carlo Barrera. Palladio was greatly impressed by the ancient Roman bath establishements, and studied them carefully, making accurate measured plans and drawings. Their domed ceilings and their lighting proved useful lessons that would be applied in due course in the design of his Venetian churches. First published in Vicenza by Francis Modena in 1785; this second Italian edition is considered as the fifth volume of ''Le fabbriche e i disegni di Andrea Palladio'' edited by the architect Bertotti Scamozzi, the doyen of the Italian Palladian revival in the 18th century.
