Plattegrond 1518 - 1580

This architectural drawing, titled "Plattegrond," was created by Andrea Palladio, a renowned Italian architect, between 1518 and 1580. The drawing likely depicts a plan for a bridge, featuring a detailed layout of its structure, including arches, supports, and surrounding elements. The precise location and context of the bridge are unknown, but the drawing exemplifies Palladio's mastery of architectural design and his focus on classical proportions and symmetry. Palladio's influence on later architecture is immense, as he pioneered the Palladian style that emphasized order and clarity in design.
