A Latin treatise on perspective drawing by the Jesuit painter Andrea Pozzo, with plates added by Johann Boxbarth and Georg Conrad Bodenehr, printed at Augsburg in 1706 by Jeremias Wolff for artists and architects. Its plates are engraved line drawings of cornices, capitals, bases, vaults and niches shown in perspective beside their plans and elevations, which a designer could use as a reference for constructing architectural forms in correct recession.
