Countless visitors to Italy take up pencil and brush to record their impressions of the great masterpieces of Classical and Renaissance architecture. Some are architects themselves, some professional artists, but all are lovers of the light, the dust of Venice, Florence, Siena, and a half-dozen other stops on the Grand Tour.
