EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print depicts a page from the seminal work "De Architectura" by the ancient Roman architect and engineer, Marcus Vitruvius Pollio. Published in Alcala de Henares, Spain, in 1582, this edition includes a Spanish translation by Miguel de Urrea. The illustration is taken from Book IV and was produced using the xylography technique. Vitruvius, born in the 1st century BC, is considered one of the greatest minds in the history of architecture. His ten-volume work, "De Architectura," is a comprehensive treatise on the art and science of architecture, engineering, and town planning. It covers various aspects of design, including the principles of harmony, proportion, and symmetry. The Salamanca University Library in Spain houses this precious piece of architectural history. The library's collection is renowned for its extensive holdings of rare and valuable books, and this Vitruvius print is a testament to its rich heritage. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of the xylography technique bring the text and illustrations to life, making this a visually stunning and educational piece. The image shows a section of a Roman temple, with detailed annotations explaining the various elements of its design, such as the entablature, columns, and pediments. This print offers a fascinating glimpse into the architectural knowledge and practices of ancient Rome, as well as the early history of printing technology. It remains an essential resource for architects, historians, and scholars, and a beautiful addition to any library or collection focused on the history of architecture and engineering.
