Creative Commons Architecture: Historic Cross Sections

By Toyotomi Yukimura

Creative Commons Architecture - Historic Cross Sections Volume II is a collected work of historical architectural cutaways, drawings, and plans. Toyotomi Yukimura collected the included drawings and painstakingly restored and modified them for inclusion in this second volume of his Creative Commons Architecture series.

Cutaway views of buildings became popular during the Renaissance. Some of the earliest known cutaway drawings can be found in Marino Taccola's fifteenth-century notebooks. By the sixteenth century, Georgius Agricola began using cutaway drawings to illustrate underground mining operations in his definitive treatise on mining called De Re Metallica. The term 'cutaway drawing' first emerged in the nineteenth century but exploded in popularity in the 1930s.

Each of the drawings edited and restored by Toyotomi for inclusion in this book was originally in the public domain prior to his transformations.
