Wrighte,W.


 
Grotesque architecture, or rural amusement; consisting of plans, elevations, and sections for huts, retreats, summer and winter hermitages, terminaries, chinese, gothic and natural grottos, ... London, Taylor 1790. Mit gest. Front. u. 28 num. Kupfertaf. 14 S., 1 Bl. (Vlgs.-Verz.) Lwd. um 1900. (Leicht berieb.).  
 
Archer 358.2. - "Unlike frontispieces to many other eighteenth- and nineteenth century architectural books, Wrighte's is not simply a portrait or an illustration of one of his own designs, but is an imaginary scene depicting several of his designs in a natural landscape setting. ... The frontispiece was designed to aid the viewer - especially the prospective client - in imagining Wrighte's building designs in a landscape setting. Indeed Wrighte was the first to publish such a scene in a book of architectural designs - showing specific designs set into natural surroundings in a consciously artful way". - Gering fleckig. - Schönes und breitrandiges Exemplar.
