$a This was for long the most accurate record of the buildings of ancient Rome. After some two years of measuring (1674-6), Desgodetz had submitted his drawings to the Académie Royale in Paris in 1677, but it was not until 1694 that they were formally approved. In his preface Desgodetz points out dissimilarites between Vitruvian theory and actual remains, and inaccuracies in the measurements given by Palladio, Labacco, Serlio, Fréart de Chambray and François Blondel. Desgodetz describes the following buildings: Pantheon (23 illus.); 'Temple de Bacchus' [i.e. mausoleum of Constantia] (5); 'Temple de Faun' [i.e. church of S. Stefano rotonda] (2); 'Temple de Vesta' [i.e. the round temple on the Forum Boarium] (3); Temple de Vesta (Tivoli) (4); Temple de la Fortune Virile (4); 'Temple de la Paix' [i.e. the basilica of Constantine] (2); Temple d'Antonin (5); 'Temple de la Concorde' [i.e. temple of Saturn] (3); 'Temple de Jupiter Stator' [i.e. temple of the Dioscuri] (3); 'Temple de Jupiter Tonnant' [i.e. temple of Vespasian] (3); 'Temple de Mars le Vengeur' [i.e. temple of Minerva in the Forum of Nerva] (4); 'Frontispiece de Neron' [i.e. temple of the Sun on the Quirinal] (2); 'Basilique d'Antonin' [i.e. the Hadrianeum] (3); Place de Nerva (3); 'Portique de Septimius' [i.e. portico of Octavia] (5); Arc de Titus (8); Arc de Septimius (10); Arc des Orfévres (4); Arc de Constantin (9); Amphitheatre appellé le Colisée (13); Amphitheatre (Verone) (4); Theatre de Marcellus (5); Thermes de Diocletien (7), 'Bains de Paul Æmile' [i.e. markets of Trajan] (3). An English translation, The ancient buildings of Rome, was published in 1795. |
