Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Anastasius or Memoirs of a Greek, Vol. 1 of 2: Written at the Close of the Eighteenth Century Thomas Hope, Esq. was one of the family of the Hopes of Amsterdam, proverbial for wealth, for liberality, for the splendour of their mansion, and for their extensive and valuable collections of works of art. Mr. Hope, possessing an ample fortune, had travelled over various parts of Europe, Asia, and Africa; having, with a refined taste, acquired a facility of drawing, he brought home a large collection of sketches, principally of the architecture and sculpture of the different scenes. Soon after his return to, and settlement in London, he published "A Letter, addressed to F. Annesley Esq., on a series of Designs for Downing College, Cambridge;" in which, founding his pretensions of what he had seen and examined in the course of his travels, especially with reference to architecture, he criticised with considerable severity the series of plans, elevations, etc., which had been produced by Mr. Wyatt.
