I cinque ordini dell' architettura di Andrea Palladio : illustrati e ridottia metodo facile
A 1801 Roman edition of Andrea Palladio's treatise on the five classical architectural orders, issued by the Salomoni printing house and adapted for easy study by students and builders. The plates are measured engravings of columns, entablatures, arches and bases, with dimension lines and lettered keys for each part. A designer can take from them the clean proportional logic of classical elements, useful for lettering layouts, grid systems, and drawn ornament.
