Discussione ragionata di due quistioni architettoniche : tratte dal libro terzo di Marco Vitruvio Pollione
A 1795 Milan printing by Pier Giovanni Piacenza, published by Francesco Pulini, that reasons through two architectural questions drawn from Book Three of Vitruvius, written for students and architects of the period. The engraved plates show column orders with their capitals and bases, drawn in precise elevation and plan, along with a temple elevation and a carved ornament. A designer might take from them the clean proportional logic of classical orders and the crisp linework of late eighteenth-century architectural engraving.
