Striving to be both scholarly and popular, Palladio invited his Renaissance readers to discover the charm of Rome’s ancient and medieval wonders, and to follow pilgrimage routes leading from one church to the next.

Enhanced with illustrations and commentary, the book also includes the first full English translation of Raphael’s letter to Pope Leo X on the monuments of ancient Rome. For architectural historians, tourists, and armchair travelers, this book offers insights into the antiquarian and ecclesiastical preoccupations of one of the Renaissance architectural masters.
