Condition: A very nice copy. 1819, London, John Murray, Albemarle Street, folio, pp(viii), 67, 10 engraved plates and 4 vignettes, the frontispiece after J. M. W. Turner.

Few of the buildings he designed have survived, but perhaps his most enduring legacy is his work on Connaught Square, and the Ladbroke Estate in Kensington, London. Pola is the largest city in western Croatia, known for its multitude of ancient Roman buildings, the most famous of which is the Arena, one of the best preserved Roman amphitheatres.
