More about the book
No other architect in the history of Western art has had an influence so spontaneous and yet so enduring as Andrea Palladio. Palladianism broke through all cultural stylistic barriers. It spread not only throughout the Neo-Latin nations but also influenced Germany, the Netherlands, Scandinavia, and the countries of Eastern Europe, shaping English architecture of the 17th and 18th centuries. Palladio lived in an age that was extremely exciting for the historical development of architecture, and his work was an important factor in the evolution from Renaissance to Baroque. This volume offers a thorough introduction to the architecture of Palladio and includes all works attributed to him.
