The print features various elements of ancient Greek design, including Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian capitals from iconic structures such as the Paestum, Erechtheion on the Acropolis of Athens, and the Choragic Monument of Lysicrates. The intricate details painted on the Doric capital from Paestum add a touch of vibrancy to its classical form. Additionally, we are treated to glimpses of other decorative elements like caryatides from the Erechtheion and acroteria from sepulchral columns in Paris. Anthemia-decorations adorn Figs 7-9 while griffins take center stage in Figs 10 and 11. Fragments of freezes provide a glimpse into ancient mythological scenes.
