Synopsis

The Nature and Function of Art: More Especially of Architecture is a book written by Leopold Eidlitz and originally published in 1881. The book explores the role of art in society, with a particular focus on architecture. Eidlitz argues that art should serve a functional purpose, rather than simply being decorative. He also discusses the importance of form and proportion in architecture, and how these elements can be used to create a harmonious and aesthetically pleasing environment. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of art and architecture. Eidlitz draws on examples from history and contemporary society to illustrate his points, and provides a thoughtful and insightful analysis of the nature of art and its role in human culture. Overall, The Nature and Function of Art is a seminal work in the field of architectural theory, and a must-read for anyone interested in the relationship between art and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
