Plates on the framing of domes – Vaux-le-Vicomte Castle

Enlarged engravings show the timber scaffolding built to raise the dome of the Panthéon, dome and imperial roof frames, and the domes of the Institut, the Val-de-Grâce and the Sorbonne after Rondelet's treatise on building (1802-1817). Displayed in the attics, near the dome of Vaux, they explain how such domes were built.
