A history of French architecture from the death of Mazarin till the death of Louis XV, 1661-1774
Reginald Blomfield's two-volume architectural history of France from 1661 to 1774, published in London by G. Bell in 1921 for architects and students of the classical tradition. Plates reproduce engraved sections, elevations and ground plans with keyed letters and French captions, scale bars and hatched masonry — a source of measured ornament, coffered vaults and formal urban layouts.
