JACKSON, Sir Thomas Graham A HOLIDAY IN UMBRIA WITH AN ACCOUNT OF URBINO AND THE CORTEGIANO OF CASTIGLIONE
London John Murray 1917 First Edition Hard Cover Very Good
1917. Blue cloth with black decorative touches and titles, VERY GOOD,206pp., colour frontispiece (watercolour of Ancona by Jackson), 15 b/w plates (drawings and photographs), 11 figures index. This book is the result of two visits, in 1881 and 1888, made in happier days to a part of Italy little known to travelling Britons, but not inferior to any in historical associations and in beauty of nature and art. The architecture of the Middle Ages is represented by the churches of Ancona, Gubbio, and others, and the earlier and most interesting period of the Renaissance by Alberti's work at Rimini, and the ducal palaces of Urbino, Pesaro, and Gubbio. A few of the illustrations are from photographs; the rest are from author's own sketches.
