Ms. Tratado de Architectura, 1666 [?]
[TRATADO de Arquitectura]. s.l.: s.n., s.XVII.
1 v.; manuscrito sobre papel; 8ff. não numeradas, 356 ff. numeradas, 1 ff. não numeada; 2 ff. extra entre os f. 81 e 82; vários pequenos pedaços de papel com desenhos originais colados aos fólios de texto; com um salto na numeração manuscrita de 146 para 153, julgamos que sem falta de texto. Bonita encadernação inteira de pergaminho moderna; ricamente decorada a ouro nas pastas, lombada e seixas; corte das folhas cinzelado e dourado; muita acidez provocada pela tinta.
A very interesting manuscript with a complete treatise on architecture, whose author we have not been able to identify. The work contains the classic books for treatises of this kind at the time, in particular, six books on Geometry, Columns, Perspective, Mathematics, Fortification and Temples.
At the beginning of the volume we find the following inscription: 'This book was left by Pedro de Araújo, chief architect in Aveiro, upon his death to Mr. Ruy de Mello Cardoso, as Father Manuel de Carvalho says, and in truth I had this declaration drawn up on 23 March 1666', indicating that the manuscript was in the possession of an architect, Pedro de Araújo, from Aveiro. Was he also its author or copyist?
The Treaty was written by at least two hands, with some sections being quite affected by the acidity of the ink used, and the folios being on different papers, some of better quality. It is also possible to see that some passages were replaced by new texts pasted over the respective sections, but from the same period. In addition to this aspect, it is important to highlight that the work is full of erasures, sometimes of entire sections, rewritten later.
Finally, it is worth noting the many drawings on paper pasted in the various sections of the text, to illustrate them, placed in such a way as not to cover the text or just pasted at one end so that they can be moved away.
Very curious.
