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.
From the set of 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 various sizes typically 28cm x 44.5
cm.
