Li Cinque Ordini Dell'Architettura Civile Di Michel Sanmicheli Rilevati dalle sue Fabriche: E descritti e publicati con quelli di Vitruvio, Alberti, Palladio, Scamozzi, Serlio, e Vignola

Pompei, Alessandro, Sanmicheli, Michele [Hrsg.] · 1785 · 40 pictures

A 1785 Italian architectural treatise by Alessandro Pompei after Michele Sanmicheli's Verona buildings, compiled with classical authors Vitruvius, Alberti, Palladio, Scamozzi, Serlio and Vignola for architects and students learning the five orders. Its plates are measured technical drawings of columns, capitals, bases and entablatures, set out in sections and details with dimensions and lettered keys, showing how each order's parts relate in proportion. A designer could draw from their precise profiles, ornamental scrolls and mouldings for classical lettering, borders and decorative framing.
