“It is a traditional architect\u2019s pattern-book but is of unprecedented scope, containing virtually every type of civic and domestic building then known, including such structures as prisons and lighthouses that had only recently been considered worthy of an architect\u2019s attention. In addition, it covers such topics as interior decoration, gardens and methods of construction. In his designs for domestic architecture, Neufforge included models to suit every level of patron, from the most modest to the most aristocratic. The designs draw both on antiquity and the High Renaissance, and the Recueil <\/strong>was extensively used as a source-book throughout the late 18th century.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Jean-Fran\u00e7ois de Neufforge was a Flemish architect and engraver. He arrived in Paris around 1738 and studied engraving there. Neufforge’s great work was the Recueil \u00c9l\u00e9mentaire d\u2019Architecture<\/strong> containing roughly 900 architectural engravings, nearly all of which he both designed and engraved.<\/p>\n
