His ability to synthesize seemingly incompatible sources influenced the next generation of Italian architects. "(...) the crowning glory of the baroque art of illusion, of negating the distinction between the real and the imaginary or theatrical - the world of frescoes and quadratura painting, and of scenography, arts in which Pozzo excelled" (auction cat.

The second edition (first by Blaeu in 1648) published by Clemendt de Jonge in 1665. "It was natural that Philips' designs should be republished in the years when - on account of the demand from England - Dutch architectural books enjoyed such a boom. His work appeared in 1665, produced by Clemendt de Jonghe, in the Kalverstraat, Amsterdam, an edition which surprisingly has been overlooked by most historians of Dutch architecture. But as an edition it has other unusual features: the different publisher, a complete resetting of the (unchanged) text and a re-engraving of the plates, which appear with Philips' name but not the engraver's." (Kuyper). "Kuyper was the first to note that Clemendt de Jonge had published copies of the original plates however they are etchings and not engravings" (Fuhring). SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE LXXXVIII.

"L'Aretino (1557), Dolce's main work on art, has been said to have been a riposte to Vasari's Lives of the Artists, whose first edition of 1550 did not even include Titian, which Vasari rectified in the second edition of 1568. (...) It takes the form of a dialogue in three parts between Pietro Aretino, representing the Venetian point of view, and the Florentine humanist Giovanni Francesco Fabrini. Beginning with a discussion of the principles of art, the dialogue moves on to a paragone or comparison between Raphael and Michelangelo, and to discuss a number of other contemporary painters, and then ends with a biography and appreciation of Titian."
