Du cubisme au classicisme : esthétique du compas et du nombre
Du cubisme au classicisme is a 1921 Paris treatise by the Italian painter Gino Severini, published by J. Povolozky, setting out his theory of geometric proportion in art for a readership of painters and art students. Its pictures are plain line diagrams in dotted and solid strokes: perspective projections of a cube, a square with diagonals and construction arcs, and compass-drawn ogival and triangular figures, which a designer could borrow as clean geometric construction schemes.
