FRIENDS WITH AN OLD BOOK

12 La pratica di prospettiva

As I was searching with the keyword “perspective” I found your book. It deals with quite similar topics than my book “Paradossi per pratticare la prospettiva senza saperla” by Giulio Troili.

There are two aspects which can get compared between our books.

Firstly, both authors were talking about perspectives and how they should be illustrated. Similar to your book the pages of mine have on the one side a text which probably describes the technical details about the perspective. Therefore on the page next to it the author shows a drawing to support the text.

Secondly, the two books have a similar appearance. Likely to your book,  “Paradossi per pratticare la prospettiva senza saperla” is quite large but has not that many pages.

49 “Perspectiva pictorum et architectorum” 

While I was browsing for an other Italian book I came across your book. My book “Paradossi per pratticare la prospettiva senza saperla” by Giulio Troili is written in the Italian language as well as yours. Also a shared component is the date when it was published. Both authors lived around the 17th century therefore the books must be published within the same years. Moreover the authors were both painters and were interested in the perspectives and their documentation about how to use and present them right.

The books are structured similarly for example the use of a describing text next to the drawings, as well as the timelessness of the topics.
