Dell'architettura ; dialogi
Ermenegildo Pini, a Barnabite mathematician and natural scientist in Milan, published these dialogues on architecture in 1770 through the Stamperia Marelliana, addressing students and practitioners of building design. Engraved plates give elevations and sections of domed churches with pilasters and niches, plus sheets of lettered geometric diagrams for arches, vaults and proportion, and woodcut vignettes stacking globe, books and instruments on a bracket.
