Rules and Examples of Perspective proper for Painters and Architects, etc. / In English and Latin: Containing a most easie and expeditious method to delineate in perspective all designs relating to architecture

by Andrea Pozzo

The Sixty-fifth FIGURE.

The Plan of a Circular Work in Perspective.

They that have not diligently apply’d themselves to the putting Circles into Perspective, and, by a constant Practice, render’d the Work familiar to them, will in vain attempt that of the Plans of round Buildings. To prevent Confusion, you’ll do well, first to mark the occult Lines of the principal Members; and after those are transferr’d into the Upright, then proceed to the rest, as I myself did in this Figure. But having found by Experience, the great Difficulty of describing these round things, I have long since made use of another Method, which, as I said before, is reserv’d for another Volume.
