Congratulations to Queen's Art History Professor Emeritus Pierre du Prey and co-author Anatole Tchikine, who received the Elisabeth Blair MacDougall Award from the Society of Architectural Historians for their book, Francesco Ignazio Lazzari's Discrizione della villa pliniana: Visions of Antiquity in the Landscape of Umbria (Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collections, 2021).
The award recognizes du Prey and Tchikine's book as one that "reads seamlessly as if written by a single hand", and as "the most distinguished work of scholarship in the history of landscape architecture and garden design" in 2023.
Congratulations, both!
