Diuina proportione is a 1509 Venice mathematics treatise by Luca Pacioli, edited by Marco Antonio Capella and dedicated to Piero Soderini, written for philosophers, painters, sculptors, architects and musicians. Its pictures are crisp line diagrams of polyhedra, some with hatched shading, showing wireframe and solid forms a designer could adapt for geometric patterns and structural drawings.
