Antiquities of Verona by Onofrio Panvinio, a Veronese antiquarian, printed in Padua in 1648 as an illustrated scholarly study of Roman monuments and inscriptions for learned readers. Its plates show Roman architecture, including a triumphal arch with a classical colonnade, a two-storey arched facade with reliefs, funerary reliefs with Latin inscriptions, and a sectional view of an amphitheatre with arcaded walls. A designer might draw on the orderly classical columns, rusticated arches, and carved panels as models for ornament and stone-framed layouts.
