EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print, dating back to circa 1760, showcases the exquisite doorways of the classical Greek and Roman architectural orders: Tuscan, Doric, Ionic, Corinthian, and Composite. The image serves as a captivating frontispiece, inviting us to explore the rich history and beauty of ancient architectural design. The Tuscan order, with its simple and robust design, is represented by a doorway adorned with plain columns and a flat, square arch. The Doric order, characterized by its bold and heavy appearance, is depicted through a doorway featuring tall, fluted columns and a triangular pediment. Moving on to the Ionic order, we see a doorway graced with slender, fluted columns, decorated with elegant, scroll-like capitals. The Corinthian order, known for its ornate and intricate design, is represented by a doorway boasting columns with elaborate acanthus leaf capitals and an elaborate entablature. Lastly, the Composite order, a fusion of Ionic and Corinthian elements, is illustrated by a doorway displaying both the slender columns with Ionic capitals and the intricate ornamentation of the Corinthian order. This print is a testament to the enduring allure of classical architecture, which continues to inspire and influence modern design. The intricate details and harmonious proportions of these doorways serve as a reminder of the timeless beauty and elegance of the ancient world.
