Oeuvres complètes de Jacques Barozzi de Vignole is an 1815 architectural treatise printed by P. Didot l'Aîné in Paris, edited by François Debret and H. Lebas, and aimed at architects and students of the classical orders. Its plates show architectural details in measured elevation and section, including cornices, mouldings, pilasters, arched bays and doorways, drawn in fine line with some shading. A designer could take from them the proportions and profiles of classical ornament, such as egg-and-dart mouldings, scroll brackets and pediment doorways, for borders, frames or period-correct architectural motifs.
