The Low Countries at the Crossroads edited by Konrad Ottenheym and Krista De Jonge

摘要

This wide-ranging book, the ninth so far in the series Architectura Moderna from the Belgian academic publisher Brepols, explores the mechanisms by which antique-revival architecture and sculpture were disseminated from the Low Countries across Northern Europe by sculptors, architects, military and civil engineers, entrepreneurs and patrons. Combining specialist contributions from sixteen authors with overview essays by the co-editors, it challenges the paradigm of a one-way transfer of architectural theories, patterns and models from Italy to the rest of Europe.
