This woodcut is a detailed architectural study illustrating the principles of the Composite Order through the depiction of two elaborate classical capitals and fragmented column shafts. The composition provides precise measurements and details of the acanthus leaves and volutes unique to this order. The print originated from a major Renaissance treatise on architectural theory and practice.

Sebastiano Serlio was an Italian architect, treatise writer, and printmaker of the late Renaissance. He is best known for his influential work, The Five Books of Architecture, which systematized the classical orders and provided pattern books for architects and builders across Europe, spreading Renaissance design principles.
