BOOKS ON ARCHITECTURE
In 1682 Henry Wetstein reprinted Le Muet’s edition of the Palladio which he had put out in 1679 (a rather rare edition, of which only a few copies still exist). It follows Mariette’s Parisian edition (1647). The copy at the BnF (Estampes, 4 HB-13) is incomplete and poorly formatted.
