Summary "An Architect's Note-Book in Spain" by Sir M. Digby Wyatt is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work primarily focuses on documenting the domestic architecture of Spain through the author’s sketches and notes made during his travels in the country. Aimed at both art enthusiasts and architects, the text serves as a critical observation of the architectural heritage that was rapidly disappearing during that era. At the start of the narrative, the author reflects on his motivations for exploring Spain's architectural ruins, emphasizing a sense of urgency to document the fading glories of the past. He expresses concern about the destructive progress occurring as Spain underwent social and political turmoil, leading to the neglect and degradation of its artistic treasures. Throughout his introduction, he pledges to capture sketches of significant sites and buildings, blending personal observation with historical context, while also addressing broader themes such as the indifference to architectural conservation in contemporary Spanish society.
