Includes bibliographical references (pages 260-308).

"Here is an illustrated portrait of the oeuvre of one of the most accomplished architects of the Renaissance, Andrea Palladio. Following the same logic that inspired Palladio in Book II of his famous treatise Quattro Libri dell'Architettura, the editors have kept the written word to the absolute minimum, letting his sixty-six signature works speak for themselves in more than 250 photographs by Pino Guidolotti specially commissioned for this book. Guido Beltramini provides insightful historical and architectural references to this extravagant photographic survey. With an introduction by architectural historian Howard Burns and a comprehensive bibliography of works on Palladio edited by Almut Goldhahn, this beautifully written and sumptuously illustrated compendium is a must for architectural enthusiasts and historians alike."--Jacket
