Siruela Publishing House, 1991
Facsimile edition of the Renaissance treatise begun by Jerónimo de Prado and continued by Juan Bautista Villalpando, devoted to commentaries on the prophecy of Ezekiel. In this work, Villalpando develops a detailed architectural reconstruction of the Temple of Jerusalem, based on principles of divine geometry, proportion, and harmony. His work stands as one of the most remarkable Renaissance attempts to reconcile biblical revelation with the science and art of architecture.
