Details van de architectuur van een tempel 1822 - 1825

This detailed engraving by Paulus Lauters, dating back to 1822-1825, showcases various architectural elements of the Temple of Minerva Pollas in Priene, a Greek city in Asia Minor. The meticulously drawn sections, labeled with numbers and measurements, provide a clear understanding of the temple's capitals, cornices, and other decorative elements. Lauters’ work exemplifies the 19th-century fascination with classical architecture and its influence on European art. This print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, serves as a valuable historical document and a testament to the enduring power of ancient Greek design.
