Éléments et théorie de l'architecture : cours professé à l'École nationale et spéciale des beaux-arts
A French architecture textbook by Julien Guadet, published in Paris in 1902 by the Librairie de la construction moderne, based on lectures given at the École nationale et spéciale des beaux-arts for architecture students. The pictures are measured line drawings of plans, sections and elevations in black and white, showing palace and house layouts, a stepped interior, and a gated entrance wall. A designer could take from them the clean hatched-wall plan conventions and the orderly symmetry of Beaux-Arts composition.
