Baroque Art and Architecture in Central Europe: Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Poland: Painting and Sculpture: Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries; Architecture: Sixteenth to Eighteenth Centuries.
This volume is the product of many years of research, including journeys especially undertaken through Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Hungary, and is the first scholarly and fully informed handbook on the German Baroque in the English language. It consists of parts of equal value and extent on architecture, painting, and sculpture, and covers also the porcelain made at Meissen and Dresden. There are about three hundred photographs, some of works of art in the Eastern countries of Europe which are not well known or illustrated elsewhere
