GALLACCINI, Teofilo (1564-1641). Trattato sopra gli errori degli architetti. Venice: Giambattista Pasquali, 1767. -- VISENTINI, Antonio (1688-1782). Osservazioni che servono di continuazione al trattato di Teofilo Gallaccini Venice: Giambattista Pasquali, 1771. Two works bound in one, 2 o (355 x 263 mm and 365 x 277 mm). First work: etched title and 25 etched plates (9 full-page); second work: etched frontispiece, etched vignette on title, 61 full-page etchings. Contemporary paper boards, marbled paper spines, uncut. Provenance : acquired from Ars Libri, 1983. FIRST EDITION of both works. Written about 1625, the Trattato sopra gli error degli architetti expresses Gallaccini's views on restraint in art and architecture, which brought him to the attention of proponents of neo-Palladianism such as Visentini and Consul Joseph Smith. Visentini had already engraved Canaletto's views of Venice for Smith and carried out architectural commissions for the Consul, and Smith was involved in the publication of these two architectural treatises. Berlin Kat. 2636 and (2640); Cicognara 513 and 514; Fowler 133 and 390; Millard Italian 43 and 154; Morazzoni 232 and 260; Schlosser-Magino 544. (2)
