Spanish Architecture Of The Sixteenth Century: General View Of The Plateresque And Herrera Styles is a book written by Arthur Byne and originally published in 1917. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the architectural styles that emerged in Spain during the 16th century, with a particular focus on the Plateresque and Herrera styles. The Plateresque style, which emerged in the early part of the century, is characterized by intricate and ornate decorations, often featuring motifs from classical mythology and the natural world. The Herrera style, which emerged later in the century, is more austere and geometric, with a focus on symmetry and proportion.Throughout the book, Byne provides detailed descriptions and analysis of various buildings and structures that exemplify these styles, including churches, palaces, and public buildings. He also explores the historical and cultural context in which these styles emerged, discussing the influence of Renaissance humanism and the political and religious upheavals of the time.Overall, Spanish Architecture Of The Sixteenth Century is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of architecture and the cultural history of Spain.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
