Beskrivning

This woodcut features a formal architectural study of a classical building facade, characterized by a prominent triangular pediment adorned with decorative urns. The illustration showcases the balanced symmetry, central portals, and flanking niches typical of High Renaissance design, serving as a practical model for the application of classical proportions in contemporary construction.

Sebastiano Serlio was an influential Italian Mannerist architect and theorist who helped canonize the classical orders of architecture. His multi-volume treatise was the first architectural handbook to emphasize practical illustrations over dense theoretical text, making it an essential reference for Renaissance builders across Europe.

Artist or Maker: Sebastiano Serlio.

Dimensions: Approximately 30 cm x 20 cm.

Medium: woodcut.

Date: 1537.
