Architecture in France in the Eighteenth Century Hardback

Part of the The Yale University Press Pelican History of Art Series series

Hardback

Item not Available

Description

The eighteenth century was a time of supreme achievement in French architecture.

The buildings of the period are distinguished by restraint and proportion, grace and practicality - qualities that influenced architecture across Europe.

This handsome book surveys developments from the final years of Louis XIV and the lasting influence of Jules-Hardouin Mansart to the dramatic fantasies of Boullee.

It analyses not only the buildings, but also their interiors, and the contemporary theoretical literature.
