Architectural details in the Rosettes diagram - MarcoP - 05-08-2022
The Rosettes diagram includes images of various buildings and several interesting architectural details, though some are hard to read.
Here I have selected a few and compared them with details from You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view., a copy of the well-known "Notitia Dignitatum".
Quote:The manuscript is modelled after the Carolingian copy (the lost Carolingian "Codex Spirensis") of a late antique manuscript. This manuscript is the earliest copy of this text to survive complete, made at Basel in 1436 by an Italian scribe and a French illuminator (Peronet Lamy) for Petrus Donatus, bishop of Padua.
Of course, the fold-out contains other noteworthy architectural details that have no parallel in the Basel manuscript (e.g. the ghibelline merlons, or the "stepped" cylindrical tower). Some buildings have their own threads, others can be discussed here.

Yes, beautiful picture.
There are plenty of "Letzi" barrage walls in Switzerland. Especially in the Alpine region.
In Austria they are called "Klause".
Here are old pictures of the Letzi "Castel Mur". It went from one side of the valley to the other. Some parts can still be seen.

I've always felt this image has something to do with the rosettes..
RE: Architectural details in the Rosettes diagram - Koen G - 08-08-2022
That's cool, but it looks pretty late. Do you have a source?
