The Architecture of Rome

A detailed and historical look at the buildings that have defined Western architecture.

The authors are a group of art historians who experienced Rome together years ago and then went their separate ways: as an on-the-spot guide, as research scholars at the University of Munich and at the Zentralinstitut fur Kunstgeschichte in Munich and the Bibliotheca Hertziana in Rome, respectively, as professor at the Friedrich Alexander-Universitat Erlangen-Nurnberg.
