Den danske Vitruvius is a 1746 Danish architectural survey printed in Copenhagen by Laurids de Thurah, Johan Jacob Bruun, Michael Keyl and Carl Ludvig Wüst, presenting the principal buildings of the Danish kingdom in Danish, French and German. The four plates show symmetrical elevations of long palace facades with rows of windows, a hipped roof and a central pavilion, plus a ground plan of a walled courtyard complex with corner pavilions and formal gardens. A designer could take from them the rigid symmetry, regular window grids and hand-ruled linework of eighteenth-century architectural drawing.
