Regola delli cinque ordini d' architettura

Vignola, 1507-1573 · 1773 · [Rome] : Presso Carlo Losi · 34 pictures

Regola delli cinque ordini d'architettura is an architectural treatise by Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola, 1507-1573, printed in Rome by Carlo Losi in 1773 as a codified guide to the five classical orders for builders and students. The plates are measured engravings of columns, arches, doorways and entablatures, annotated with module dimensions in Italian. A designer can take their clean proportional grids, Corinthian capitals and rusticated arch framing as a reference for classical ornament and layout.
