A propos de cet article

'New' (second) edition. 28 engraved plates plus frontispiece; bound in contemporary or early boards (probably French); small private library label on the upper board and ink notation at the top of the title page; upper left corner of the sheets waterstained; very good. While some of the plans for buildings, fountains and cascades are indeed grotesque, others are fanciful or exotic, including those for miniature mosques and minarets. All books described as first editions are first printings unless otherwise noted.
