THE PALACE O ImFperi ARCHITECTURE;
A ROMANCE OF ART AND lii!SJORY.
BY GEORGE WIGHTWI
ARCHITECT. tr
To be illustrated with a Coloured Map, ait upwards of Two
Hundred Plates and Woodcuts.
The object of this work is to bring forward the subject of
Architecture in a more popular manner than has,ever yet
been attempted. It is addressed not more to the young
Student than to the general reader of either sex, and aims at
exhibiting in an attractive point of view what has hitherto
been too exclusively connected with conventional science and
mathematics. The picture, the poetry, the sentiment, and
the associations with which the subject teems, are therefore
prominently regarded ; while as much of the science as is
necessary to critical appreciation and a knowledge of the
general principles of design, is involved in its treatment.
