Palladio's buildings in glorious black-and-white,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Palladio Guide (Paperback)
This sturdy paperback is a complete catalog to the buildings of 16th Century architect Andrea Palladio. It includes descriptions, floor plans, and black-and-white photos of Palladio's buildings throughout the Veneto region. The descriptions are a bit dry, but the book is a "must" for serious architecture buffs with a passion for Palladio.
