Lauritz de Thurah (1706-1759) was one of the most important and influential Danish Baroque architects. As the first substantial monography on Thurah, this book gives a multifaceted view on his important role in 18th century Denmark by presenting him not only as an architect, but also as a garden architect, publicist, and an official in the Danish absolute monarchy.

His works include some of the most notable Baroque architecture in Denmark, such as The Hermitage - the king's hunting lodge north of Copenhagen, Gammel Holtegaard - de Thurah's Countryside mansion now transformed into an art museum, the spiralled spire of Church of Our Savior in Copenhagen, as well as extensions to and reconstructions of a number of Danish castles, mansions and abbeys.

The monography is written by leading researchers on the topic, and is richly illustrated with archive images and drawings, as well as new original photos by the photographer Anders Sune Berg.
