Summary:
Because of the extent of the impact of his work, it is difficult to determine which buildings are true Palladios-those actually designed by him and completed in his lifetime. "Andrea Palladio: the complete illustrated works" catalogs the body of work truly belonging to Palladio. All 66 works definitively attributed to Palladio are lavishly illustrated here with over 250 contemporary photographs by Pino Guidolotti, and accompanied by extended captions that provide historical and architectural references and document their current condition. The author has also included references from Palladio's famous treatise "The four books of architecture".

Summary:
Published here for the first time are Palladio's preparatory materials for an illustrated edition of Polybius' Histories alongside Palladio's material for his edition of Julius Caesar' Commentaries (1575). Long thought to have been lost, his original Polybius has now been recomposed by drawing on three manuscript copies: the mock-up used by Palladio to plan the edition, rediscovered in the London British Library in 1977; a second copy found in Florence in 1986 and a third exemplar only very recently found in the New York Public Library. Here the reproductions of the 43 etchings for the Polybius have been accompanied by 42 etchings which Palladio dedicated to Caesar's deeds. This offers a complete picture of his effort to reconstruct those excellent features of ancient warfare on which Palladio wished to base his own proposals for reforming the contemporary Venetian militia, as well as give a different point of view on the history of architecture.

Summary:
Architecture Without Content is architecture reduced to its very perimeter. The books in the series are the outcome of studios offered at EPFL. Architecture Without Content 15 emerged from the Roman Architecture studio trip to the Veneto- we were looking for an architecture that we felt we could only discover in the tangible reality as found, opposed to the monumental photographs we know all too well. Stefano Graziano, our compagnon de route, was looking for something similar, as if he was pursuing a parallel project of re-appropriation, making a new set of photographs depicting another Palladio. Neon Palladio is a collection of overviews and details, fragments and relations. It is equally Palladio and Scamozzi and Sansovino.
