Geometry of Greek vases : Attic vases in the Museum of fine arts analysed according to the principles of proportion discovered by Jay Hambidge
A 1922 Boston study by Lacey Davis Caskey, published with the Museum of Fine Arts, analysing Attic Greek vases through the proportional system of Jay Hambidge. The pictures are line drawings of vase profiles with dotted diagonal and rectangle construction lines, numbered pages and dash-dot trim marks. A designer could take from them the method of overlaying root-rectangle grids on a silhouette to test and balance form.
