The Fiftieth FIGURE.

John James translation

A Design of Ionick Architecture.

Illustration from Rules and Examples of Perspective proper for Painters and Architects, etc. In English and Latin: Containing a most easie and expeditious method to delineate in perspective all designs relating to architecture

From the Plan of the Forty-seventh Figure, and from the Upright of the Forty-ninth Figure, is drawn this Ionick Piece; which might well serve for the lower Order of a Turret, or for part of a Triumphal-Arch. I fear the Engraver has not been so exact in this Scheme, as he ought; but you will readily discover his Mistakes, and carefully beware of them.
