Series: The Classical American Series in Art and Architecture
Perhaps the finest record of classical architectural detail ever made. Executed in the demanding technique of India ink and water color rendering, the illustrations include the Parthenon, Roman temples, Pantheon, Colosseum, many others. Unparalleled three-dimensionality and effects of scale. Enhanced with Introductory Notes by John Blatteau and Christiane Sears.
This edition of Hector d’Espouy’s Fragments of Greek and Roman Architecture is visually the most exciting in the Classical America Series in Art and Architecture to date. It is an essential instrument for anyone interested in the future of the classical tradition in American Art.
