Thomas, W: Northern Italian Details (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Northern Italian Details

Northern Italian is, to many of us, a sufficiently alluring adjective applied to almost anything, from architectural details to a specialized cuisine; but it was not wholly the title that first fixed my serious attention on the plates making up this volume. I have had the habit of looking through the current architectural periodicals and marking plates to be cut out for the office files. I have come to mark so very few that when I began by selecting the first of this series I remember think ing that I should probably stop there, but I ended by taking the entire series.
