Monneret de Villard, Ugo, 1881-1954 · 1900 · Firenze : Alinari · 19 pictures

An Italian photographic guide to monuments around Lake Como, published in Florence by Alinari in 1900 and written by the architectural historian Ugo Monneret de Villard. Its plates are captioned in Italian, French and German for an international audience of architecture readers and travellers. The photographs show church façades, a villa, a cloister and a carved doorway, giving a designer clear references for historic Italian masonry, arcades and stone carving.
