[Tafelband.]

21 pictures

A plate volume of architectural ground plans, likely from an Italian or German architectural publication, with no author, date, or audience given in the record. The pictures are plain black-and-white plans of temples, villas and public buildings, with walls drawn as solid dark bands, columns as rows of small dots, and lettered keys for each room. A designer could take from them the clean geometry of colonnaded courts, symmetrical wall grids, and the radiating seating layout of the semicircular theatre plan.
