Not illustrated. 1920 Excerpt: ...Metropolitan Museum, New York, Fig. 21, is a simple square and the elements of the vase are proportioned by the dynamic subdivision of the containing shape. AB is a rectangle of the whirling squares. AC is a diagonal to one-half this shape. It cuts the diagonal of the whole at D, which point determines the width of the foot. This foot width is equal to one-third of a side of the encompassing square. AP is a.382 rectangle and AF is the diagonal of half this shape and it intersects the diagonal of the whirling square rectangle AE at G. It Fig. 22. Kalpis 06.1021.192, Metropolitan Museum, New York. (Measured and drawn by the Museum Staff.) also cuts the diagonal of the square HI at J. The line GM cuts the diagonal of the whirling square rectangle KL to determine the line NO, which fixes the width of the bowl. The line NO meets the diagonal of the whirling square rectangle AB at O and the diagonal of the.382 shape at N. This shows that the lip and the foot of the vessel are proportioned respectively in terms of the two main divisions of the overall shape, /'. e., .618 and.382, and that both foot and lip are directly proportioned to the width of the bowl. The theme is an arrangement in diagonals of the two main subdivisions of the containing square and diagonals of half these shapes. Kalpis 06.1021.1-92 in the New York Museum, Fig. 22, is contained in a square. A small error is shown at the points where the handles do not quite touch the sides of this square. The width of the bowl and the height define a 1.2764 rectangle. The fraction.2764 is the reciprocal of 3.618, /'. e., two squares plus a whirling square rectangle. The area of the lip and neck is composed of these two squares, while AC and DE, added, form the whirling square rectangle. AB is a square. The wi..
