Le più belle fabbriche del millecinquecento ed altri monumenti di architettura esistenti in Napoli : misurati, disegnati, e descritti con notizie storiche, ed osservazione artistiche
An 1845 Neapolitan architectural survey by Francesco de Cesare, published in Naples and drawn for architects, students and builders, records sixteenth-century buildings and monuments through measured plates. The pictures are precise line drawings of columns, capitals, cornices and carved ornament, with dimensions and plate numbers in the margins, offering a designer clear models of classical orders and foliate or grotesque decoration.
