Fowler Coll. 224. - Brit. Arch. Library 2392. - Ornamentstich-Slg. Bln. 2598. - UCBA II, 1529. - Zweite Ausgabe der englischen Übersetzung von G. Leoni. Umfangreich illustriertes, wichtiges Werk zur Architektur, das besonders auf den britischen "Georgian Style" entscheidenden Einfluß genommen hat. "There were numerous translations of the treatise, as Palladio's ideas aroused a great deal of interest, especially in France and England. Palladio's book made an enormous contribution to the affirmation of classicism and the authority of Vitruvius and was especially influential in the Anglo-Saxon world." (Millard Coll., Italian and Spanish books S. 248) - "An important treatise on architecture, both theoretical and practical in nature ... Many illustrations of Palladio's own villas and palaces, and the remains of antiquity. The buildings illustrated, especially the villas, were widely imitated in Great Britain and America."
