To His Molt Sacred MAJESTY, GEORG KING of Great-Britain, France and Ireland , & Thefe DESIGNS of INIGO JONES ; Are with all Humility Dedicated, by HIS MAJESTY'S Moft Faithful and Devoted Subject and Servant, ADVERTISEMENT. HE Character of Inigo Jones is fo univer- fally known, that his Name alone will be a fufficient Recommendation of the following Defigns; the Originals of which (drawn , by himfelf and Mr. Webb) belong to the Earl of Burlington. No better Account can be given of his Life than what Mr. Webb hath already done in the Preface of his excel¬ lent Defence of that judicious Treatife, entitled, Stonhenge reftord, there being fcarce any Materials left, from whence to compile it. Palladio’s, Defign of the famous Church of Santo Georgio at Venice, (fo defervedly admired by all good Architects) is added to this Work, to fliew that as great a Rival as that Re- ftorer of Architecture was to the Antients, his Difciple was in no refpect inferior to him. If the Reputation of this Great Man doth not rife in pro¬ portion to his Merits in his own Country, tis certain, in Italy, (which was his School) and other Parts of Europe, he was in great efteem; in which places, as well as in England, his own Works are his Monument and belt Panegyrick; which, to- B gether gether with thofe of Palladio, remain equal Proofs of the Superiority of thofe two Great Mailers to all others. To this Collection are added Deligns of Doors, Windows, Gates, Peers, Chimneys, Infides of Rooms, and Ceilings; as alfo fome few Deligns of Buildings by the Earl of Burlington- The other Particulars will be Ihewn in the following Tables annex d to each Volume.
