Congres International des Architectes (5th : 1900 : Paris, France), Exposition universelle internationale de 1900 (Paris, France) · 1906 · Paris : Impr. et librairie centrales des chemins de fer · 40 pictures

This is a French record of the fifth International Congress of Architects, held in Paris from 29 July to 4 August 1900 alongside the Exposition universelle, published in 1906 by the Paris railway-press firm Impr. et librairie centrales des chemins de fer. The plates are numbered architectural illustrations of classical buildings, reliefs, and reconstructions, many sideways on the page. They show Doric and Ionic colonnades, sculpted friezes with winged figures and lions, and perspective views of temple interiors, useful for a designer studying classical ornament and column proportion.
