Product Description

The Elements of Classical Architecture (Classical America Series in Art and Architecture)

A treasury of drawings in the great Beaux-Arts tradition.

This book reproduces two important texts by Georges Gromort, professor of architecture at the Ecole for half a century, with the addition of photographs of the buildings, still standing, on which the plates were based, and ten American drawings in the classical style. Illustrated and with plans
