Architectural Drawings of the Regency Period, 1790-1837

by Giles Worsley

The Regency period was one of the great ages of architectural draftsmanship. The drawings (150 53 in color) chosen to illustrate this beautiful volume afford a representative account of Regency architecture, from the grandest public building to the most humble terraced house, from the work of the greatest architects to that of the least known. An essay on architecture and the architectural profession during the Regency period introduces the drawings. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
