About This Item
Mit Pr, 1987. Hardcover. Very Good. 11x8x0. Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Some offsetting on end pages. <br> "German Classicism is a powerful architectural force that is only now being fully studied. As this extensively illustrated book shows, palaces, private houses, public buildings, and urban planning all received patronage on a scale that could not be paralleled in other countries. Of the host of architects whose genius was given such superb opportunities in the years 1740 to 1840, only Karl Friedrich Schinkel's name has become widely known; yet, this book points out, all over Germany rulers were dramatically transforming their capitals, and the achievements of Weinbrenner at Karlsruhe, Moller at Darmstadt, or Klenze at Munich are by any standards astonishing." <br> This is an oversized or heavy book, which requires additional postage for international delivery outside the US.
