Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into French architecture from the 16th through the 17th centuries, a pivotal period marked by innovative ideas. As Gothic architecture gradually waned, a novel style influenced by the Renaissance took hold, evident primarily in secular buildings. However, church architecture initially remained rooted in Gothic traditions, despite attempts to incorporate classical elements. The author explores the factors that influenced this architectural shift, including the return of the Jesuits and their influence on church design. The Jesuits established standardized building practices, including distinct designs for colleges and churches. This book sheds light on the architects of this era, such as Salomon de Brosse, who played a crucial role in shaping the new architectural landscape. The author analyzes iconic structures like the Luxembourg Palace and the Church of the Sorbonne, highlighting the blending of Renaissance and Gothic elements. Additionally, the text examines how 17th-century French architecture laid the groundwork for the grandeur of the Baroque and Neoclassical periods that followed. This book is a valuable resource for those seeking a comprehensive understanding of this transformative period in French architecture.
