Les édifices antiques de Rome
Les édifices antiques de Rome is a 1682 architectural treatise published in Paris by Jean Baptiste Coignard, written by Antoine Desgodets and engraved by Jean Le Pautre, for architects and students. Its pictures are precise engraved measured drawings of Roman column orders, capitals, cornices and bases, with dimension figures and scale lines running down the margins that a designer could use as a reference for classical ornament and proportion.
