Look, I have a fun new icon! [[User:Cohesion|cohesion ]] 07:12, 12 Sep 2004 (UTC)

The current entry is shameful. I'm hoping you're up to working on it. Are you sure your images are 1736 not the more familiar Ware book of 1738? (Andrea Palladia's architecture, in four books... Carefully revis'd and redelineated by Edwd. Hoppus. London, 1736, vs. The four books of architecture....Translated by Isaac Ware. London, 1738) I snitched an image and stashed it at Palladian.

Thanks for the warm reception, Wetman. Unfortunately my expertise is not in architecture, so I'm afraid I won't have too much to add to Palladianism, though I might be able to write about William Kent. My nickname was chosen more from a general admiration of the early 18th century spirit in England, the birth of Reason and the 'revival' of classicism, not because I am expert in the specifics (other than the furniture, paintings and objets de vertu that populated those marvelous buildings).

As for your question about the provenance of my image, I got it from the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript library at Yale University. The complete title reads: "Andrea Palladio's Architecture in four books ... : The whole containing 226 [i.e., 222] folio copper plates / containing a dissertation on the five orders & ye most necessary observations relating to all kinds of building ... ; Carefully revis'd and redelineated by Edwd. Hoppus... and embellished w.th a large variety of chimney pieces collected from the works of Inigo Jones & others. Published : London : Printed for Benjn. Cole engraver the corner of Kings-Head-court, near Fetter-lane, Holbourn, & John Wilcox opposite the New church in the Strand, 1736."

So I can confirm the date of 1736 for the image, which occurs on page 185 of the Beinecke copy. Palladian 08:44, Sep 12, 2004 (UTC)

Indigo dye

[edit]

Hello. Is the picture you uploaded of Indigo dye pigment (sorry for lack of link, I'm on a 'mobile device') really free to use? I'd like to use it for a logo (nothing serious). If that is the case - thank you for uploading said image. In addition, would it be possible for a higher resolution image? Sorry to bother and intrude your page. Thanks for reading, cheers.
