Full Tuscan Column: Pedestal, Column and Entablature


Learning Classical Architecture: The Full Tuscan Column. Pedestal, Column and Entablature.

Drawing done using reference from a youtube channel called: “Architectural Orders”. Videos are based on the measurements of Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola.

To create a measured drawing, use the Tuscan modules found above, below and along the side. To calculate the Tuscan module, see The Tuscan Order on a previous post or check the above referenced youtube channel.

Learning the Classical Orders on my own is proving to be a little difficult.  While there is a lot of information out there, I haven’t been able to find a “one-stop shopping” place to find it all. As I learn it myself, I’d like to make all of the information I find available in one place.  Keep checking my website for updates.
