Jay Hambidge's 1920 study of proportion in Greek pottery, published by Yale University Press for artists, designers, and archaeologists interested in geometric rules of composition. The plates are outline drawings of amphorae, kraters, and kylikes overlaid with dotted and dash-dot construction grids, diagonals, and rectangles, giving clean vessel silhouettes and ready-made geometric diagrams for layout work.
