Hendrick Hondius I's "Korinthische zuilen en hoofdgestel" (1606 - 1620) is a detailed architectural drawing of a Corinthian column and its entablature. The intricate design is presented in a diagrammatic style with numerical measurements marking each section of the column, from its base to its capital. Hondius's careful attention to detail emphasizes the proportions and ornamentation of classical architecture, making this an important piece for architects and art enthusiasts alike. The drawing is now housed in the Rijksmuseum, providing a glimpse into the study of architectural orders during the early modern period.
