Analisi ed esame ragionato dell' arte della fortificazione is an 18th-century Italian treatise on fortification and the defence of fortresses, written by Carlo Borgo and published in Venice in 1777 by Antonio Zatta for military engineers and officers. Its pictures are numbered engraved plates of star-shaped bastioned ramparts, floor plans, sections and angled firing-line diagrams drawn in fine black line with stippled shading, useful to a designer for precise geometric layouts and the radiating-line structure of fortress plans.
