Ionische orde, deel van zuil met voetstuk en hoofdgestel before 1689

This anonymous architectural drawing from the Rijksmuseum depicts two different interpretations of the Ionic order: the "Serlio" style, named after the Italian architect Sebastiano Serlio, and the "Vignola" style, named after the Italian architect Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola. Both styles are characterized by a fluted column with a scroll-shaped capital, but they differ in their proportions and details. This detailed drawing, complete with measurements and labels, highlights the importance of precise architectural design in the 17th century. The work is a valuable resource for understanding the evolution of architectural styles during this period.
