The present work is one of the most successful examples of architecture integrating urban and regional planning and architecture and is probably the most important contribution to the development of Prussian Classicism. Gilly had extensive technical knowledge particularly of wooden roof structures. <br><br>"One of the trendsetters within the late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century electorate was David Gilly 1748-1808 a second generation Huguenot whose family had come from Provence. He established the theory and practice of rual architecture in Brandenburg-Prussia; functionality and utility were paradigms by which he desgined buildings. Through his son 1772-1800 Gilly influenced the famous romantic-classicist Klarl Friedrich Schinkel and his school." Finney Seeing Seeing beyond the word: visual arts and the Calvinist tradition p. 272.<br> <br>David Gilly built the two castles Paretz 1796 and Freienwalde 1798 for the king of Prussia. hardcover

GREAT STYLES OF INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE. With Their Decoration And Furniture.
Harper and Brothers: 1924. 264 pages plus numerous b&w photographic plates. "This book although going back to the early Renaissance times is not so much a study of history as of design. Not the steps by which the transitions were made but the styles at their heights are described and discussed. And it is a sympathetic description seeing the diverse phases of interior architecture as their designers might have dreamed them. The book is scholarly but its clearness and vivacity make it distinctly a reading book for the layman as well as for architects students and decorators." FINE- HARDCOVER GOOD DUST JACKET. Hard Cover.

An essay on prints
London: printed for R. Blamire in the Strand 1792. Early Reprint. Quarter-Morocco. Near Fine. Fourth Edition so stated. 8vo: xiii3174xi1pp. Contemporary quarter black morocco over marbled boards flat spine in six compartments between gilt rules gilt urn stamped in each but second titled in gilt. An excellent copy the binding holding firmly the text block generally clean and bright with just occasional minor smudges and handling marks and a few stray spots of foxing. Barbier pp. 24-27. Lowndes II 895. First published anonymously in 1768 Gilpin's authorship was only revealed with the third edition in 1781 as the first standard guide on print collecting in England reaching a fifth edition in 1802. On the continent its influence spread through German French and Dutch translations. Gilpin's "aim as the title-page indicates was to outline 'the Principles of picturesque Beauty the Different Kinds of Prints and the Characters of the most noted Masters'. . . . The Essay defines 'picturesque' as 'a term expressive of that peculiar kind of beauty which is agreeable in a picture' but does not develop the definition." ODNB Among prints singled out for detailed consideration are Salvator Rosa's "Death of Polycrates" Waterloo's "Tobias" and Hogarth's "Rake's Progress." Finally the collector is "cautioned against indulging a desire of becoming possessed of all the works of any master. . . . against a superstitious veneration for names. . . . against making the public taste our standard. . . against rating prints' value by their scarceness. . . against buying copies for originals" and against acquiring poor impressions. N. B. With few exceptions always identified we only stock books in exceptional condition with dust jackets carefully preserved in archival removable polypropylene sleeves. All orders are packaged with care and posted promptly. Satisfaction guaranteed. printed for R. Blamire, in the Strand unknown

Gilpin's "aim as the title-page indicates was to outline 'the Principles of picturesque Beauty the Different Kinds of Prints and the Characters of the most noted Masters'. . . . The Essay defines 'picturesque' as 'a term expressive of that peculiar kind of beauty which is agreeable in a picture' Essay on Prints 2 but does not develop the definition." ODNB Among prints singled out for detailed consideration are Salvator Rosa's "Death of Polycrates" Waterloo's "Tobias" and Hogarth's "Rake's Progress." Finally the collector is "cautioned against indulging a desire of becoming possessed of all the works of any master. . . . against a superstitious veneration for names. . . . against making the public taste our standard. . . against rating prints' value by their scarceness. . . against buying copies for originals" and against acquiring poor impressions. N. B. With few exceptions always identified we only stock books in exceptional condition with dust jackets carefully preserved in archival removable polypropylene sleeves. All orders are packaged with care and posted promptly. Satisfaction guaranteed. printed for J. Robson, Bookseller to the Princess Dowager of Wales, at the Feathers, in New Bond Street unknown
