I commentari di C. Givlio Cesare : con le figvre in rame de gli alloggiamenti, de' fatti d'arme, delle circonuallationi delle città, & di molte altre cose notabili descritte in essi
This 1598 Venetian edition of Caesar's Commentaries, published by Girolamo Foglietti with copper-plate figures after designs by the Palladio family, was made for readers of classical military history and for scholars. The four plates show Roman camps, fortified siege lines, and marching troops across river valleys drawn as fine engraved lines, offering designers a model for dense hatched landscapes, grid-planned encampments, and crowded schematic plans.
