FIG. LXVIII.
FIGURA Sexagesimaoctava.
Elevatio geometrica vestigii præcedentis, & secunda præparatio ad figuram septuagesimamprimam.
In hoc schemate habes elevationem ædificii sectam in longum, quam figurâ septuagesimâ opticè projiciemus: eisdemque membris constare videbis elevationem deformatam, quibus constat elevatio geometrica. Hinc disces ad excogitandas hujusmodi machinas, eandem Architecturæ scientiam in Pictore necessariam esse, quæ ad construenda solida ædificia exigitur in Architecto.
The Sixty-eighth FIGURE.
The Geometrical Elevation of the foregoing Plan, and second Preparation to the Seventy-first Figure.
In this Figure you have the Elevation of the aforesaid Structure dissected lengthwise; the Perspective thereof is describ’d in the Seventieth Figure; and you may observe that both of them consist of the same Members: whence you may perceive, that for designing things of this kind, the Painter ought to have no less Skill in Architecture, than is requir’d for the Execution of solid Works.
