L' architettura
Vitruvius's architectural treatise L'architettura, edited by Berardo Galiani, Ignatius Lucchesini and Francesco La Marra and printed in Naples in 1790 by the Bindi press, written for students and readers of classical building theory. Its engraved plates show temple elevations, floor plans, theatre sections and a circus layout drawn in precise line, which a designer could use as clean reference for classical proportion and plan diagrams.
