An Historical Inquiry into the True Principles of Beauty in Art: More Especially with Reference to Architecture - Cambridge Library Collection - Art and Architecture

James Fergusson (1808–86) spent ten years as an indigo planter in India before embarking upon a second career as an architectural historian. In this illustrated work of 1849, he considers beauty in art, expressed chiefly by the architectural styles of different civilisations, from ancient Egypt to ancient Rome.
