Lord Burlington
Author: Toby BarnardPublisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 9781852850944
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 364
Book Description
Despite Burlington's fame, surprisingly little has been written about him. Lord Burlington: Architecture, Art and Life presents a modern reassessment of his career, while setting him in a broader context than has usually been the case, to reflect both his interests outside architecture and to present his character in the round. Architecture is given pride of place, but his other interests, in land-owning, politics and literature, are also examined, throwing much new light on an exceptionally significant and attractive figure.
