H.Hulsbergh
engraver/ CAMPBELL, Colen Vitruvius
Britannicus, or The British Architect,
Containing the Plans, Elevations, and
Sections of the Regular Buildings, both
Public and Private in Great Britain.
London.The Authors.1715 5 vols. Folio.,
375 engraved plates, including many
double-page. Vitruvius Britannicus is
indispensable for the study of 17th and
18th-century architecture in England,
and occupies its own place in
architectural history as the book which
established Palladian architecture as
the approved style for Britain in the
18th century. Colen Campbell issued the
first three volumes between 1715 and
1725.
375 large
engraved illustrations, plans and
sections of palaces, country houses,
government offices and churches
designed by architects from Inigo Jones
onwards, with extensive coverage of
Wren and Vanbrugh and of Campbell's own
designs in the new English Palladian
style.A compilation of British domestic
architecture of the 17th and 18th
century.The first volume, appearing in
the same year as Leoni's Palladio, was
the earliest manifestation of the new
Palladian revival - it was, in fact,
Campbell who kindled the flames of
Burlington's interest. Large
plate engravings being 28cm x 44.5
cm.

John Crunden
(c.1741&endash;1835), The
Joyner and Cabinet-maker's
Darling; or, Pocket Director,
London, 1765, 1770, 1786.
Of the six architectural
books published by architect
and surveyor John Crunden
between 1765 and 1770, The
Joyner and Cabinet-maker's
Darling is the only one with a
bearing on furniture design.
It contains twenty-six plates
with "Sixty different Designs,
. . . Forty of which are
Gothic, Chinese, Mosaic, and
Ornamental Frets, Proper For
Friezes, Imposts, Architraves,
Tabernacle Frames, Book-Cases,
Tea Tables, Tea Stands, Trays,
Stoves, and Fenders." The
other twenty designs are for
fan lights and overdoors. The
Darling was issued without
revision in 1770 and 1786.
He was an English
architect. He is known for his
pattern-books, one of which,
Convenient and Ornamental
Architecture, consisting of
Original Designs (from) the
Farm House … to the Most
Grand and Magnificent Villa
(1767), went into seven later
editions, and was the most
successful of its type,
containing designs for a range
of Palladianesque buildings.
He collaborated with J. H.
Morris to produce The
Carpenter's Companion …
for… Chinese Railing and
Gates (1765), and also
designed in the Gothick style,
including a garden-pavilion
illustrated in Krafft's Plans
des plus beaux jardins
pittoresques (1809). His
architectural works are not
numerous, but include Boodle's
Club, St. James's Street,
London (1775&endash;6), which
is influenced by the work of
Robert Adam.

JULIEN-DAVID LE ROY . . The Ruins
of the Most Beautiful Monuments of
Greece. /Les ruines des plus beaux

Considérés du

Seconde édition corrigée
et augmentée. 2 vols. in 1.

plates after Le Roy, principally by Le
Bas, but also by Patte and Neufforge.

. An early and very influential work
on classical architecture, with
sensitive picturesque compositions of
the major monuments of Athens and
elsewhere. Le Roy (1724? - 1803),
successor to Blondel as professor of
architecture, and a teacher of Durand,
was one of the foremost exponents of
Greek taste. "Le Roy's 'Ruines,' though
it does not provide a comprehensive
theory and appears to waver between the
genres of the treatise on aesthetics,
the voyage pittoresque, and the
archaeological publication, breaks new
ground in providing a synthesis of
archaeological findings with a body of
architectural theory developed and
expanded from the important controversy
of Claude Perrault and François
Blondel. It also includes material
based on new rational and historical
attitudes which were being developed by
Jacques-François Blondel and
would find their most extreme statement
in the work of Claude Nicolas Ledoux
and Étienne-Louis
Boullée. Perhaps the most
important, Le Roy's treatise provides
the theoretical framework and many of
the models for French neoclassical
architecture" (Dora Wiebenson, in
Millard).
J.F. de Neufforge (1714-1791)
engraved and published a group of
handsome architectural studies and
details. These classical decorative
images were of building façades
and plans, garden plans, drawings for
fountains, gates and other
architectural details. Each engraving
demonstrated a balance between the
simple lines of classic Greco-Roman
architecture and the fine ornament and
detail prevalent in the seventeenth and
eighteenth centuries. These delicately
engraved prints are fine examples of
the decoration of the period
immediately preceding the American and
French Revolutions. From this book he
went on to write and illustrate Recueil
Elementaire D'Architecture included
some 900 architectural engravings,
nearly all of which were not only
designed by also engraved by Neufforge
himself. The publication was
extensively used as a source-book
throughout the late 18th century.
