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 Twenty-fifth Figure.

The Composite Capital in Perspective.

From what has been said of the Corinthian Capital, may be learnt the Manner of putting the Composite also into Perspective. I wish I could prevail with you, that to the Reading of the Rules, which in themselves are but lifeless Masters, you would constantly add a diligent Practice of the Figures by the Compasses; this being the only way to supply the Want of a living Master.
