{"product_id":"reconstructing-francesco-di-giorgio-architect-berthold-hub-9783631575840","title":"Reconstructing Francesco di Giorgio Architect","description":"Francesco di Giorgio Martini is one of the few fifteenth century Sienese artists who became known outside his native city. Working at the courts of Urbino, Naples and Milan, he was a typical Renaissance \u003ci\u003euomo universale\u003c\/i\u003e but his major achievements were in military and civil architecture, complemented by the composition of a theoretical treatise. The collection of essays does not offer a comprehensive study of the artist's architectural oeuvre, but rather emphasizes the partial nature of the scholarly endeavor so far undertaken. The essays discuss Francesco's theory, his drawings from the antique, the individual characteristics of his practice, and the reception of his work. They share a common idea: invention, which emerges as a valid theoretical framework, possibly the only one capable of encompassing Francesco di Giorgio's versatile accomplishments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Berthold Hub\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 363157584X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783631575840\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der W\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/10\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 214\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.45d","brand":"Berthold Hub","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48446259200255,"sku":"9783631575840","price":62.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b7893e68-4cda-4bdb-8c0e-69b3a7bdecef.jpg?v=1777223612","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/reconstructing-francesco-di-giorgio-architect-berthold-hub-9783631575840","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
