This book delves into the characteristics and significance of Lombard architecture, particularly that of the region of Como, exploring its historical development and unique style. With a blend of historical analysis and architectural critique, it aims to highlight the contributions of the “magistri comacini,” the master builders who shaped this architectural tradition. In "Architettura comacina," Vittorio Treves examines the evolution of Lombard architecture, tracing its roots back to the early medieval period with significant landmarks like the Basilica of Sant'Ambrogio in Milan. The book emphasizes the original and practical elements of the comacina style, such as its structural designs, ornamentation, and functional harmony with the community. Treves discusses various architectural features, such as the use of vaults, piers, and decorative sculptures, elucidating how the architecture reflects the culture and needs of the time. He highlights the simplicity and robustness of Lombard buildings, their integration in the landscape, and their evolution influenced by historical and social factors, reinforcing the idea that this architecture stands as a testament to the ingenuity of its creators and their enduring legacy.
