$a The illustrations are unsigned. According to Grove they are derived from those in Dürer's Vier Büche von menschlicher Proportion (1528). According to the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography they are Haydock's, including the title-plate with his self-portrait. The names of the printer and publisher are given in the colophon: 'Printed At Oxford By Ioseph Barnes For R.H. Anno Domini, M.D.XC.VIII.' - which is printed below the armorial device of Oxford University, and above that of New College. The work is dedicated by Richard Haydocke to Thomas Bodley. |

$a Haydocke's English translation of Lomazzo's Trattato is of the first five books only - although 'A Table Of The Chapters of the whole volume' lists the chapters of the lengthy sixth and seventh books, and also mentions 'A table of the names of all the most famous painters ... whose workes and preceps are used throughout the whole Worke', which is also not present. In his Trattato (1584) and Idea del tempio della pittura (1590) Lomazzo attempted to create a philosophy of art within a cosmology that owes something to Plato, Thomas Aquinas, Ficino and H.C. Agrippa. The seven books of the Trattato address 1. proportion; 2. gesture and expression, and planetary influence on temperament; 3. colour; 4. light and optics; 5. perspective; 6.7. perspective, and the application of these theories to composition and specific subject-matter. Most illustrations of this English translation are in the first book, on proportion. There is also an illustration in the fifth book, on perspective. The title plate incorporates an elaborate engraved border. |
