L'architettura antica descritta e dimostrata coi monumenti ... : opera divisa in tre sezioni risguardanti la storia, la teorica, e le pratiche dell' architettura egiziana, greca e romana

Canina, Luigi, 1795-1856 · 1830 · Roma : Dai tipi dello stesso Canina · 155 pictures

Luigi Canina's three-part survey of Egyptian, Greek and Roman architecture, printed at his own Rome press in 1830 for architects and antiquarians. Engraved plates give measured plans, elevations and sections of temples in fine outline, with columns reduced to dotted rows, shaded wall masses and scale bars — a stock of clean geometric diagrams and repeating column grids.
