Description / Content:
A scholarly research article analyzing measured plans of the Pantheon in Rome through geometric patterns and proportional systems. The study compares historical and modern representations—including drawings by Sebastiano Serlio, Andrea Palladio, Antoine Desgodetz, and the Bern Digital Pantheon Project—to identify recurring relationships involving rotated squares, inscribed circles, and root-two proportions in the building’s horizontal plan. This publication is provided for architectural research, historical reference, geometric analysis, proportional study, visual research, and educational use.
