This anonymous drawing from the 16th century depicts architectural details, specifically the elevation and section of an unidentified building and a Corinthian column base. The meticulous pen and ink lines on the sheet provide a precise and detailed view of the classical elements. It's likely this drawing was created for a design project, reflecting the architectural ideals of the Italian Renaissance and providing insight into the architectural practices of the time.
