Paris: Delaulne, 1699. First edition, 8vo., with 7 engraved plates (of which 5 are folding), contemporary sprinkled calf, spine decorated gilt in compartments, later gilt monogram on the covers, partly erased early ownership signature on the title page, with the book plates of John and Michel Bury (3)Note: Totti's guide shows ancient Rome as it was in Totti's time and as he thought it had originally been. The views are highly valuable for the historian of Roman topography, and the "restorations" interesting for the reflection of contemporary architecture. Felibien's reconstruction of Pliny's villas through an analysis of the author's letters foreshadows the rise of Romantic classicism. Felibien supplies the Latin text with his own translation and copious notes. Felibien also reproduces the description of the Laurentine villa by Scamozzi, who records discrepancies that occur in the Pliny documents. Scamozzi's text appears in the original Italian with Felibien's French translation and notes. The work concludes with Felibien's Dissertation touchant l'architecture antique et l'architrecture gothique.
