Storia de' monumenti di Napoli e degli architetti che gli edificavano
Storia de' monumenti di Napoli is an architectural history published in Naples in 1856 by Camillo Napoleone Sasso, aimed at readers interested in the city's buildings and the architects who designed them. The plates are measured architectural drawings: elevations of façades and interior walls, plus floor plans of a theatre-like hall, drawn in fine line with light grey wash. A designer could take from them the clean ordering of classical columns, pilasters, pediments and rusticated courses as a source for linear layout and stone-like texture.
