Paul Letarouilly`s three-volume masterpiece, Edifices de Rome Moderne, was first published in 1860. It has been bailed as the most beautiful book on Renaissance architecture ever produced. Letarouilly devoted 35 years to the Herculean task of drawing the plans, sections, elevations, perspectives, and large-scale details of gardens, convents, palaces, and churches of Renaissance Rome. His keen observational ability and immaculate drawing skills make this work an indispensable sourcebook to the architecture of the period. Princeton Architectural Press`s one-volume reprint contains all 354 plates and Letarouilly`s map of Rome dated 1838, a 23 x 35-inch insert that took the artist five years to complete. This splendid and invaluable book is a delight for anyone interested in Renaissance architecture . -- Clare Robertson, World of Interiors
