Renaissance und Barock, eine Untersuchung über Wesen und Entstehung des Barockstils in Italien
Heinrich Wölfflin's 1908 Munich study Renaissance und Barock examines how the Baroque style arose in Italy, illustrated with architectural plates of Roman palaces and churches. The pictures are rotated photographs and engraved elevations of façades, interiors and plans, with tiers of arched windows, rusticated bays and domes that a designer could use for studying classical architectural rhythm, repetition and axial symmetry.
