About this title

Synopsis

Andrea Palladio (1508-1580) may well be the single most influential architect ever, and by conspicuously adopting his vocabulary, Michael Graves, Philip Johnson and the post-modernists have made him a byword for the 1980s and 1990s. This book contains photographs and text which disclose some of Palladio's elegant country houses - located in the north of Italy.
