When did drawing become an integral part of architecture? Among
several architects and artists who brought about this change during
the Renaissance, Francesco di Giorgio Martini's ideas on drawing
recorded in his Trattati di architettura, ingegneria e arte
militare (1475-1490) are significant. Francesco suggests that
drawing is linked to the architect's imagination and central in
conveying images and ideas to others. Starting with the broader
edges of Francesco's written work and steadily penetrating into the
fantastic world of his drawings, the book examines his singular
formulation of the act of drawing and its significance in the
context of the Renaissance. The book concludes with speculations on
how Francesco's work is relevant to us at the onset of another
major shift in architecture caused by the proliferation of digital
media.
