Onuphrij Panuinij veronensis augustiniani Antiquitatum veronensium libri octo : nunc primum in lucem editi
A 1647 Padua printing by the Veronese Augustinian antiquarian Onofrio Panvinio, issued as his eight books on Roman antiquities of Verona, aimed at scholars and students of ancient architecture. Its engraved plates show Roman architecture in close detail: a columned arch with twisted shafts, a two-tier triumphal gateway with relief panels, and a large amphitheatre cut away to reveal its seating and façade. Designers can draw on the classical orders, arcade rhythms and carved frieze decoration.
