jan 1, 1537 - Tutte l’opere d’architettura Sebastiano Serlio

Description:

In terms of architectural treatises Sebastiano Serlio’s sequence
of five architectural books – collected together in 1585 under the title
Tutte l’opere d’architettura – was much more effective than Alberti’s
great treatise. Serlio’s Book IV , which treats the orders, was the first of
the five books, published in 1537. It was published in Italian rather than
Latin as Alberti’s De re aedificatoria.23 The primary reason for Serlio’s
appeal, in comparison with Alberti, was most probably Serlio’s extensive
use of drawings. Serlio’s book is indeed the first architectural treatise to
use drawings. In Serlio’s book the drawings clearly dominate the
comparatively sparse text.24
