Neue systematische Darstellung der architektonischen Ordnungen der Griechen, Römer und neuern Baumeister
A systematic German architectural treatise of 1845 by Johann Matthäus von Mauch, published in Stuttgart by Ferdinand Riegel, setting out the classical column orders of Greeks, Romans and later builders for architects and students. Its plates are measured line drawings of capitals, bases, entablatures and plans, with dimensions and lettered keys, showing how each order is built up and proportioned; a designer could draw on their crisp linework, acanthus and scroll ornament, and precise geometric layouts.
