Edifices de Rome moderne : ou, Recueil des palais, maisons, églises, couvents, et autres monuments publics et particuliers les plus remarquables de la ville de Rome
Edifices de Rome moderne is an architectural survey of Rome's notable palaces, churches and public buildings, compiled by the French architect Paul Letarouilly and published in Paris by Bance in 1857. Its plates are measured architectural drawings: sectional elevations of courtyards and arcades in fine line, a dense sheet of orders and column profiles, a perspective view of an arcaded hall, and a domed temple front with a balustraded balcony. A designer can take from them the clean rhythm of superimposed orders, arches over columns, and balustrades, useful for classical layouts and grid-based pattern work.
