Tomo II.
Tomo II is a folio volume of engraved architectural plates, most likely an early modern Italian or European treatise on building, printed with numbered tables and kept in the Werner Oechslin library in Einsiedeln. The plates show ground plans, elevations, Doric and Corinthian capitals, arches, vaults, and geometric construction diagrams drawn in fine black line on cream paper. A designer could take the clean hierarchy of plan, section and detail, and the precise line work of the ornament and proportion diagrams.
