jgagfaifcg: HE Character of Inigo Jones is fo univer-
m^^118"^!!!! ^Uy known, that his Name alone will be a
■8' fufficient Recommendation of the following Hi Deligns; the Originals of which (drawn by faMljllB 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 refterd, there being fcarce any Materials left, from whence to compile it. Palladids Defign of the famous Church of Santo Georgio at
Venice, (fo defervedly admired by all good Architects) is added to this Work, to Ihew that as great a Rival as that Re- ftorer of Architecture was to the Antients, his Difciple was in no refpeŁt 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 beft Panegyrick; which, to- B gether
|

gether with thofe of Palladia, remain equal Proofs of the
Superiority of thofe two Great Matters to all others. To this Collection are added Defigns of Doors, Windows,
