EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the title page of "Les dix livres d'Architecture de Vitruve, corrigez et traduits nouvellement en Francois," published in 1684. The creator of the original text was Marcus Vitruvius Pollio, a Roman architect, engineer, and author of the first comprehensive treatise on architecture, written around 25 BC. The title translates to "The Ten Books on Architecture of Vitruvius, corrected and newly translated into French." The print features an ornate design, with columns and decorative elements framing the title and the author's name. The columns, typical of ancient Roman architecture, are adorned with intricate carvings and capitals. The print also includes a frontispiece, as well as woodcut illustrations and engraved plates throughout the text. The importance of this work in the history of architecture and design is evident in its numerous reprints and translations over the centuries. This particular edition, published in the seventeenth century, was likely used as a reference by architects and builders in France and beyond. Today, it is a valuable addition to any art or architecture collection, and can be found in prestigious institutions such as The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The print serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of ancient Roman architecture and the importance of preserving and studying the works of its greatest thinkers and practitioners. It also highlights the role of printing in the dissemination of knowledge and the development of artistic and cultural heritage.
