1722ABC_50368London: Printed for J. Senex and R. Gosling; W. Taylor W. and J. Innys and J. Osborn 1722. Contemporary half sprinkled calf marbled paper sides red sprinkled edges. Folio. With 6 full-page engravings of columns 6 half-page engravings 23 engraved initials 23 engraved headpieces 18 engraved tailpieces as well as an engraved title page and an engraved dedication. Second English edition of Claude Perraults 1613-1688 influential work on classical architecture presents a remarkable combination of intellectual rigor practical guidance and fine engraving. Originally published in Paris in 1683 Perraults treatise was at the time controversial and dismissed by the Académie Royale dArchitecture as unsuitable for students and never republished in France or abroad apart from England.The English translation undertaken by the architect John James ca. 1672-1746 first appeared in 1708 and this second edition of 1722 adds an alphabetical explanation of architectural terms and several new engravings. John Sturt 1658-1730 celebrated engraver and publisher enriched the edition with a beautifully engraved title page a dedication leaf to Thomas Earl of Pembroke 1656-1733 and more than 50 engraved initials head- and tailpieces textual illustrations and retains 6 engraved plates illustrating the Tuscan Doric Ionic Corinthian and Composite orders.Perraults work exerted lasting influence on English architecture. Figures such as Nicholas Hawksmoor ca. 1661-1736 John Vanbrugh 1664-1726 and William Kent 1685-1748 drew upon his principles while later theorists including Isaac Ware 1704-1766 and William Chambers 1723-1796 integrated his approach into their own treatises. This second English edition therefore represents both a practical manual for builders and a key intellectual link between French architectural theory and English practice.With the initials WD and the name W. Danby written on the front pastedown possibly referring to William Danby 1752-1833 the English writer who rebuilt his family home Swinton Park and constructed a replica of Stonehenge on his estate. In 1784 he served as High Sheriff of Yorkshire. The binding shows some wear with some rubbing to the boards and spine. There is a tear to the lower margin of the title page not affecting text or illustration and some staining throughout particularly on the page containing the table of chapters to part I on pp. 94-95 and on p. 25.
