Marcus Vitruvius Pollio Quotes:
Ocupation: Author
Life: d. 15
Birthday: d. 15
There will be natural propriety in using an eastern light for bedrooms and libraries, a western light in winter for baths and winter apartments, and a northern light for picture galleries and other places in which a steady light is needed; for that quarter of the sky grows neither light nor dark with the course of the sun, but remains steady and unshifting all day long.
