Gamla Stockholmshus af Nicodemus Tessin d. ä. och några samtida byggnader
A 1912 Swedish architectural study published in Stockholm by P. A. Norstedt & Söner, written by Osvald Sirén, examining the old Stockholm palace of Nicodemus Tessin the Elder and several contemporary buildings for architecture students and historians. The pictures are measured architectural drawings: elevations of palace facades with rows of regular windows, a ground plan with thick wall outlines, a church front with twin towers and an oval plan, and a rusticated arcade in layers. A designer could take from them the disciplined grid of window bays, the tiered arcade rhythm, and the clean line-drawn method of showing buildings.
