$a Revesi Bruti's Italian original was published in 1627, for those with limited knowledge of mathematics. For this English translation the original plates have been carefully copied. In 1761 a Description and Use of a New Instrument Called, An Architectonic Sector was published by J. Kirby, with the claim that it was better adapted to Palladian architecture. The manuscript of Malie's translation survives at Chatsworth. |
