Imprint taken from slip mounted over the original imprint which reads: A Paris, Chez Jacques Vincent.
Apparently a reissue of the original 1725 Vincent edition with some plates from Briseux's Architecture moderne, issued in 1728 by Claude Jombert. This edition must therefore have been issued between 1728 and 1737 when the publisher's address changes. Cf. Fowler Cat. no. 94.
