À propos de l'œuvre
Sir John Summerson's short (roughly 80 page) classic is an informal yet trenchant explanation of the classical grammar that has shaped Western architecture from antiquity through the current age. Various architectural elements and styles are explained in a delightful prose that engages and informs.
