Dürer's large woodcut monogram on title; woodcut proportional figures throughout many two to a page; woodcut ornamental flourishes. 134 leaves plus 4 folded double-page leaves printed on both sides. 1 vols. Folio. Full brown levant by Bedford decoratively stamped and tooled in gilt; title stamped in gilt on spine; a.e.g. Front board rehinged to highest standard; V5-6 closely trimmed but complete. A beautiful copy. First edition. Dürer's large woodcut monogram on title; woodcut proportional figures throughout many two to a page; woodcut ornamental flourishes. 134 leaves plus 4 folded double-page leaves printed on both sides. 1 vols. Folio. First edition of Albrecht Dürer's "Four Books on Human Proportion" his iconic treatise on the geometry of the human body published posthumously for his widow in 1528 six months after his death.<br /> <br /> Best known for both his highly-detailed engravings and woodcuts as well as portraits - in particular those of himself - Dürer had shown early promise as an artist. At the age of fifteen he apprenticed with Michael Wolgemut who also lived in Nuremburg and specialized in woodcuts. While Dürer was training there Wolgemut's workshop began work on the over 1800 illustrations in the famous 1493 Nuremberg Chronicle published by Dürer's godfather Anton Koberger and he may have contributed to several of them.<br /> <br /> After travels to Italy and marriage Dürer settled in Nuremburg and opened his own workshop where he integrated the Italian aesthetics he absorbed on his journeys into the Northern forms of his upbringing and training. In addition to painting and engraving he also began codifying his theoretical approaches to art and perspective. The first of these works "Four Books on Measurement" "Underweysung der Messung mit dem Zirckel und Richt Scheyt" published in 1525 dealt with geometry and as he stated in the introduction it was intended "not only for painters but also for goldsmiths sculptors stonemasons carpenters and all those for whom using measurement is useful." A second book "Various Lessons on the Fortification of Cities Castles and Localities" "Etliche Underricht zu Befestigung der Stett Schloss und Flecken" was issued in 1527.<br /> <br /> "Four Books on Human Proportion" is considered his textual masterpiece however. The first book - primarily written from 1512-1513 - explores five different types of male and female figures all based on his personal observations each divided into fractions of height while the second book examines a further eight anatomical models using Leon Battista Alberti's concepts of linear perspective. In the third book Dürer provides operative principles by which the proportions of human physiognomy can be modified and the fourth concerns his theories of movement. <br /> <br /> An important additional essay by Dürer on aesthetics was included at the rear of the book in which he differentiated himself from prior theoriticians on the human form such as Leonardo da Vinci and Marcus Vitruvius. While clearly influenced by their work Dürer was less interested in celebrating corporeal paragons than surveying the many varieties of bodily shapes and sizes as well as the manners in which those figures moved through the world. As he himself noted "I hold that the perfection of form and beauty is contained in the sum of all men."<br /> <br /> A CHOICE COPY OF THIS BEAUTIFUL AND INFLUENTIAL BOOK ON ANTHROPOMETRY. VD16 ZV 23128. Provenance: Robert Hoe his morocco label; sold Anderson Galleries April 1912 lot 1050; to Albert Gallatin Sr. and by descent in the family Jeronymus Formschneyder unknown

DURER, Albrecht
Institutionum Geometricarum
Paris: Christian Wechel 1532. First Latin edition of Dürers first book on the theory of art the Unterweisung der Messung bound with the first Latin edition of his treatise on fortification strictly speaking the first treatise dealing exclusively with this subject Krufft with important material on urban planning and utopianism.1 Illustrated by Dürer himself the Institutionum Geometricarum outlines the artists theory of the work of art as a natural object which became an accepted aesthetic dogma until the 19th century. Far more than the German original of 1525 this translation by the humanist Camerarius brought the treatise to the attention of the whole of Europe. As a theoretical statement by the last major painter to be counted a significant geometer Kemp the work is naturally of interest for applications in Dürers own oeuvre as well as for the history of perspective. After his encounter with Luca Pacioli in Italy Dürer became convinced of how close the links are between art and mathematics and devoted himself to the study of form through the resources offered by arithmetic and geometry. The result was the present work. In this work Dürer teaches the principles of perspective and explains the application of practical geometry to drawing and painting. It became a very influential text as its audience broadened from artists to architects sculptors and different craftsmen and was translated and reprinted several times.Panofsky describes the treatises importance as three-fold: for the technical innovation in the construction of a perspective apparatus in which the eye of the observer is dispensed with entirely; for being the first literary document in which a strictly representational problem received a strictly scientific treatment at the hands of a Northerner; and for emphasizing that perspective is not a technical discipline destined to remain subsidiary to painting or architecture but an important branch of mathematics capable of being developed into what is now known as general projective geometry Panofsky p. 252.Book Three contains Dürers famous treatise on the just shaping of Roman capital letters and gothic or Textur letters built up by means of small geometrical forms a method original with Dürer. This text was translated into English by R.T. Nichol for publication by the Grolier Club Of the Just Shaping of Letters New York 1917.2 Inspired by the artists witnessing the siege of Hohenasperg in 1519 and by fear of the advancing Turkish armies Krufft writes De Urbibus employs a dual approach. On the one hand Dürer develops various alternatives for the construction of bastions to defend existing cities; this is the contemporary aspect. At the heart of the treatise he outlines a utopian city in which the nature of fortification merely serves as a spur to the depiction of a social structure organized on the ground. Related trades are placed side by side; smiths are to be housed near foundries etc. The town hall and the houses of the nobility are sited near the royal palace. The whole system of organization is hierarchical and functional. Dürer thinks of every function of the city right down to the taverns Krufft History of Architectural Theory p. 110 . Elsewhere Krufft suggests that Serlio employed the present treatise in book VI.According to Mortimer the woodblocks are close copies of the 1527 German original. 1Mortimer French I.182; Vagnetti E II.b7; Panofsky The Life and Art of Albrecht Dürer Chapter 8 Dürer as a theorist of Art esp. 247-60; Kemp The Science of Art 53ff.; 2 Mortimer French I.184; Fowler 113 1527 German; Krufft History of Architectural Theory 110-111. 4 ff. recto of last leaf blank woodcut of man with lute on verso 185 pp. verso blank 1 f. printers device on verso recto blank; folding extensions on P6 & Q1 as required by Mortimer.
