The renaissance of art in France

Dilke, Emilia Francis Strong, Lady, 1840-1904 · 1879 · London : C. Kegan Paul · 8 pictures

Published in London by C. Kegan Paul in 1879, this survey of French Renaissance art was written by Lady Dilke for general readers interested in architecture and decoration. Its plates are architectural drawings of buildings seen in elevation and bird's-eye perspective, with rotated scans, showing façades, window bays, towers and courtyard plans that a designer could use for classical architectural layouts and line-based schematics.
