A history of French architecture from the death of Mazarin till the death of Louis XV, 1661-1774
Sir Reginald Blomfield's scholarly survey of French architecture from 1661 to 1774, published in London by G. Bell in 1921 for architects and students. Reproduced engravings and measured drawings show palace and hôtel elevations, bird's-eye views of châteaux with formal gardens, plans, and street scenes with small figures and carriages—useful for architectural line detail, ornament, and period staffage.
