Condition: Good. 4to. 27.3 x 39.9cm. Contemporary half calf, rubbed, rebacked & recornered preserving old gilt spine, new label, 41 engraved plates, with final otherwise blank imprint leaf, some foxing, bookplate of James O'Byrne., blind stamp of Derek Gair-Gibson to first 2 blanks (Derek G. Gibson- a unique scientist and cardiologist, 1936-2021.). .Fowler, 429; Lowndes, Vol. 5, p. 2789; OCLC Number 939435789. 'Advertisement' :William Wilkins explains that he is offering yet another translation of Vitruvius because of the fundamental error committed by earlier interpreters of the work in attempting to illustrate Vitruvius' text by reference to extant Roman as opposed to Greek buildings, thus ignoring the author's 'uniform assertions, that, upon the architectural monuments of Greece, or rather the writings descriptive of them, the basis of his work was formed. Had these assurances availed, instead of adopting in their editions variations from the text of the manuscripts, which the discrepancy between the principles upon which the edifices of Rome were constructed, and those detailed by Vitruvius, seemed to authorise, they would have sought for that coincidence in the remains of Grecian architecture which was not to be discovered amongst the vestiges of the art in Italy.'.
