Filippo Brunelleschi - Eugenio Battisti. Published by Pall Mall Press (an imprint of Phaidon) Paperback with fly-leaves, 2012. Originally published by Electa Architecture, Milan, 1976. Illustrated. This large-format book is a comprehensive study of the important Florentine architect and sculptor Filippo Brunelleschi (1377-1446). Art historian Eugenio Battisti considers Brunelleschi's contribution to Renaissance culture, discussing his experiments with perspective and his development of a rational architectural language from his study of antiquity. The book is a detailed record of all Brunelleschi's major works including The Foundling Hospital (c.1419-45), the Pazzi Chapel (c1441-1460) and his remarkable (and very famous) dome of Santa Maria del Fiore (c.1420-1436). It also includes his military projects and his work as a goldsmith and sculptor. Illustrated with many black-and white photo plates, diagrams, plans and elevations, this book is a must for anyone interested in Brunelleschi and his work. Condition: Very good. This is a nice copy with a clean interior. Outside, there is a black ink spot at the bottom of the fore-edge, a few sooty smudges on the spine and a small amount of shelf soiling on the bottom page edges.
