The Twenty-first Figure.

The Tuscan Capital in Perspective.

The Manner before deliver’d concerning Bases, is of the same Use in delineating Capitals; forasmuch as these also have their square Abacus, and their round Members. The Ground-line in Capitals is usually plac’d above the Horizon; because when they are set upon Columns which exceed a Man’s Height, they are generally represented above the Eye.
