Comment on Argument_82 Hi! My book is Nr.100, The theory of perspective demonstrated Cowley, John Lodge. I found your book for review first of all because their titles are similar and they both talk about the principles and techniques of drawing perspective. But their differences are also obvious and contrasting. The first is that both…

«Architectura Civilis» written by Joseph Furttenbach (argument_25) was the first book I came across during my searching. The similarity between this and my book is, that the authors write a lot about public buildings like churches and chapels. These buildings are analyzed by the authors, and they explain, how they are constructed. They both work…

Greetings_36 I think your book has some similarities to mine regarding its illustrations and layout. Mine ( Perspectiva pictorum et architectorum, from Andrea Pozzo)also has some illustrations concerning defensive wall infrastructure. Even the shape of the walls you showed in your photos is very similar to the ones Pozzo is showing. The layout is also…

comment to Greetings_36 Hi, I think your first illustration has many similarities with the first page of my book „Neü-herfürgegebene Kriegsarchitektur“ written by Christoph Heidemann. You see on both illustrations a person with an helmet and a book in their hand where they show a drawing that is in the book. In both cases the…

Kommentar 1: Greetings_29 Fanny Evéquoz Mein Buch #105 dell‘architettura von Mario Gioffredo ist sehr ähnlich zu deinem Buch. Ich habe nach Büchern gesucht, die auch um die Säulenordnung gehen. Mein Buch sieht auch von außen sehr schlicht aus, ist aber um einiges grösser und der Einband löst sich schon sehr stark auf. Mein Buch ist…

Not only does it only consist of ten books, which is how I came across your book, but it also tries to give a general overview on some broad but important aspects of architecture. Mine is…

comment on: Contact_227 – Archived Hey! I looked at the video you posted here and found that “L’architecture françoise” by Jean Mariette shares many physical similarities with my book which is “livre d’architecture” by Germain Boffrand. They are about the same size, and work in the same way: meaning the floorpans and sections were drawn…

Argument_88 Hi! I noticed that your book has some similarities with the book I analyzed (Lucidum prospectivae Speculum). They are both books from the 18th century with a Latin title. You also mention that yours is richly illustrated especially in the back of the book, just like mine. From your description, I could imagen that…

Both intend to teach the…

I decided to choose the two books to compare based on the topic of the book, so I searched for military architecture themed texts. I found the following books: Architectura militaris (1645) – Andreas Cellarius This work by Andreas Cellarius is historically speaking of about the same age as my assigned book. Cellarius though was…
