CHAPTER XIII — Critical Commentary & Notes

On the Intervals Between One Triglyph and Another.

Historical & Mathematical Commentary

  • Structural Continuity of Column and Triglyph: In the classical orders (Vitruvius IV.2–3), triglyphs represent the ornamental ends of the ceiling beams resting upon the architrave directly above the columns; hence their spacing is locked to the intercolumniation below.
