ARCHITECTURE - POZZO (Andrea): Perspectivae pictorum atque architectorum.I [-II] pars.- Der Mahler und Baumeister Perspektiv. Erster [-zweyter] Theil. Augsburg, Peter Detleffsen for Jeremias Wolff, 1749. 1 volume in-folio in period dominoté boards (very worn, without spine, spotting, repairs, a few tears, small marginal worm gallery). Second part only: 6 ff.n.ch. (out of 7, lacking the title page) and 118 engraved plates with bilingual explanatory text, 1 frontispiece (details of the painting of the frescoes). Beautiful bilingual Latin-German edition of Andrea Pozzo's famous book. For this edition, given by the skillful publisher Jeremias Wolff in Augsburg, the engravings were copied by the artists Johannes Boxbarth and Georg Conrad Bodenehr from the original edition but engraved upside down - the shadows are thus reversed.
