On the Plates belonging Lecture II.
ARCHITECTURE.
PLATE XI.
SHEWS the various distances of the intercolumni-
ations, and their names, as given by the ancients:
These examples shew at the same time the manner of
representing plans of columns, with their bases and
pedestals. The general effects of these various distances
may easily be imagined.
The Pycnoslyle intercolumniations are distant from,
column to column, one diameter and a half of the co-
lumn, measured at bottom. This is the nearest approach
of columns to each other, except when they are coupled.;
in which case, the bases of the two columns may alinost
touch each other.
In the Systyle intercolumniation the space between
the columns is two diameters.
In the Diastyle three diameters.
In the Arlostyle four diameters.
The Eustyle is two diameters and a quarter, and was
by the ancients reckoned the most perfect; as being a
32 C c happy
