Item description from seller

Good Condition. Wear and tear on dust jacket. Please see photos for visual details. John Soane, The Making of an Architect (1982) is an illustrated architectural study devoted to the life, education, and development of Sir John Soane, one of Britain's most important architects of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Published by the University of Chicago Press, this volume examines the formative experiences and influences that shaped Soane's architectural career. Soane is particularly known for his distinctive interpretation of Neoclassical architecture, his innovative approach to spatial design, and his remarkable collection of art and architectural fragments. His own house in London, now Sir John Soane's Museum, reflects his interests in architecture, antiquity, collecting, and the history of art.
