Quatrième de couverture J'ai voulu replacer la cathédrale de Strasbourg dans l'écrin qui était le sien, au milieu de toutes les manifestations de la vie spirituelle et matérielle des hommes qui la bâtirent, la restituer au coeur du Moyen Age où elle est née. Dans toute cette imagerie de pierre jadis polychromée et rehaussée d'or, comme un immense livre ouvert offrant au regard de tous les merveilles de ses enluminures, Notre-Dame est là qui manifeste à jamais la vie éternellement féconde, le mystère de la Vierge Marie, le mystère de Marie, le mystère de Stella. De maître Erwin à Jean-Richard Haesser, à travers une chaîne ininterrompue depuis des siècles, les maîtres de l'oeuvre Notre-Dame ont pu penser les blessures de la cathédrale. Grâce à ses hommes, malgré la marche inéluctable du temps destructeur, malgré les outrages des guerres et des révolutions, malgré les iconoclastes de toutes les époques, aujourd'hui Notre-dame reste le témoin silencieux mais bien vivant de l'ésotérisme et du savoir-faire des bâtisseurs qu'elle cache dans ses vêtements de pierre et de verre.

The first comprehensive account of how and why architects learned to communicate through color. Architectural drawings of the Italian Renaissance were largely devoid of color, but from the seventeenth century through the nineteenth, polychromy in architectural representation grew and flourished. Basile Baudez argues that colors appeared on paper when architects adapted the pictorial tools of imitation, cartographers' natural signs, military engineers' conventions, and, finally, painters' affective goals in an attempt to communicate with a broad public.Inessential Colors traces the use of color in European architectural drawings and prints, revealing how this phenomenon reflected the professional anxieties of an emerging professional practice that was simultaneously art and science. Traversing national borders, the book addresses color as a key player in the long history of rivalry and exchange between European traditions in architectural representation and practice.Featuring a wealth of previously unpublished drawings, Inessential Colors challenges the long-standing misreading of architectural drawings as illustrations rather than representations, pointing instead to their inherent qualities as independent objects whose beauty paved the way for the visual system architects use today.
