Palladio, Andrea, 1508-1580 · 1642 · In Venetia : Apresso Marc' Antonio Brogiollo · 36 pictures

Andrea Palladio's architectural treatise, published in Venice in 1642 by Marc' Antonio Brogiollo, sets out the classical orders and studies of ancient Roman buildings for builders and architects. The four pictures are woodcut elevations and sections of colonnades, entablatures and wall bays with page numbers and the word LIBRO at the head, showing column orders, rhythmic bays and niches that a designer could adapt for classical facades and interiors.
