This lecture explores neoclassicist theory through the analysis of Salomon de Brosse's façade of Eglise de Saint Gervais in Paris, focusing on the incorporation of Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian orders in a harmonious composition. The slides cover key concepts such as the influence of Vitruvius, the comparison of ancient and modern architecture, and the significance of architectural proportions.
