| Fig. 5. "Elevated icosidodecahedron" woodcut from the
printed version of De divina proportione, cut by an anonymous woodcutter
based on the drawing of Figure 3. The book text is in Italian, with figure
captions in Greek, Italian and Latin. By means of these coarser images
published in print and widely circulated, other scholars learned of these
polyhedra. | top
