"A leading architect of the Italian Renaissance, Baldassarre Peruzzi (1481-1536) has,
until now, been a little-known, enigmatic figure. A paucity of biographical documentation
and a modest number of surviving buildings, coupled with an undeservedly critical
assessment by Giorgio Vasari (1511-1574), have long cast Peruzzi's career in shadow.
With Becoming an Architect in Renaissance Italy, Ann C. Huppert taps into a known,
but neglected resource--Peruzzi's autograph drawings--and reveals the full scope and
artistic mastery of Peruzzi's work and its enduring influence. Extraordinary not only
in their beauty and design inventiveness, but also in the varied representational
techniques and practical mathematics noted within them, Peruzzi's drawings record
an evolving artistic process. Reassessing his architectural masterworks, Huppert also
explores lesser-known work: his studies of Roman antiquity, realized paintings and
unrealized buildings, as well as engineering projects. Huppert shows that Peruzzi
anticipated modern representational methods and scientific approaches in architecture,
and pinpoints the moment when architecture began to emerge as a profession distinct
from the other arts"
