Summary:

Key to the puritan minimalist classicism of 17th-century English architecture was the work of Inigo Jones. This work reassesses both Jones and his apprentice, John Webb. It places the work of Roger Pratt above that of Isaac de Cans, arguing that he must be considered the true disciple of Jones.
