Trattato delle piante & immagini de sacri edifizi di Terra Santa : disegnate in Ierusalemme secondo le regole della prospettiua, & uera misura della lor grandezza
Bernardino Amico's 1620 Florentine treatise, printed by Pietro Cecconcelli, sets out ground plans and views of the sacred buildings of the Holy Land, drawn in Jerusalem to the rules of perspective and true scale for architects and antiquarians. The woodcut cross-and-scroll ornaments show how interlaced strapwork and arabesque panels can fill a square or cross-shaped field, while the engraved domed chapel plans show clean, measured layouts a designer could adapt.
