The Melancholy engraving by Dürer and Agrippa is hiding its gematrical messages not only in the numbers of its magic square but also in the numbers forming its modular dimensions. If the sphere on ...the lower left side of the composition is 10 modules in diameter, the magic square measures 8 by 8 modules, and the print is 70 by 55 modules large. The circumference of the etching equals 250 and its diagonal 89 modules. In the numbers 55, 70, 250 and 89 are hidden gematrical messages, prayers, cursing, the name of the Melancholia itself and the names of its authors.
The polyhedron with triangular and pentagonal faces on the Duerer's "MELENCOLIA I" engraving is said to be a cube with two opposite corners cut off. A cube has 6 faces, 12 sides and 8 corners. A ...cube with two truncated tips has 8 faces, 18 sides and 12 corners. In the above numbers, the prime factors 2 and 3 are implied. The numbers 2 and 3 are symbols for human beings, male and female. The solid is a symbol for humanity. Men and women can be affected with melancholy.
In the numbers of Duerer's Melancolia magic square is hidden the Aristotle's wonder: "How come, that all the people, excelling in philosophy or in politics or in poetry or in arts, are evidently ...melancholical..."

François Rabelais signed his books on Gargantua et Pantagruel with pen names. The gematric value of his pseudonyms, NASIER, M. ALCOFRIBAS, and ALCOFRIBAS NASIER, are 66, 99 and 152, ...respectively.With numbers 66 and 99, Rabelais identified himself as the Apocalyptic beast, according to the report by St, John the Divine: And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had horns like a lamb. The ram's and buck's horns are indeed similar to the Indian figures 66 and 99.
The plan of Borobuclur conforms with two concentric octagrams. The lines of the scheme, their lengths, and their intersections, determine the articulation of the Borobudur composition, i. e. the ...sizes of every part and of the whole as well. The sizes of Borobudur are modular. Their modular multiples are Pell numbers, the ratios of which rationally approximate the irrational proportions in octagram If Borobudur numbers are located in the Peli number-pattern and connected with a line, the syllable OM, written in Sanskrit, appears. The word octagram is only the modern European name of the symbol of OM. The prayer OM MANI PADME HUM, translated as 'the JEWEL and the LOTOS', is a good description of octagram.
Tisti, ki se ima za arhitekta, mora (med drugim) biti seznanjen z zvezdoslovjem in nebesnimi računi … Kajti v astrologiji (arhitekt) spozna … nebesni red. Vitruvius, De architectura, I, I, 3 in 10 ...Grška beseda •arhitektura" je nastopila v današnjem pomenu besede razmeroma pozno. Pred njo je umetnost gradnje, se pravi lepo in urejeno oblikovanje zgradbe in prostora, označevala beseda "kozmos".
The American-Croatian painter Maksimilian Vanka, 1 1889-1963, or Maxo for his friends, composed together with his American wife Margaret, her father dr. Stetten DeWitt and his friends Louis and ...Stella Adamic, his most enigmatic work, the "WORLD WAR II" collage. The collage originated at the reunion of Maxo Vanka, his wife Margaret, his friends Louis and Stella Adamic, with Margaret's father Dr. Stetten DeWitt, after his return from Europe at war. The party was exhilarated with Dr. Stetten's safe escape from Korcula (Dalmatia) to Paris, Le Havre and on board of the French liner lie de France to New York, and preoccupied with the imminent World War.
The Vitruvius'word symmetria is usually translated as the symmetry in English, or simetrija in Yugoslav languages, or la simmetria, la symétrie, die Symmetrie, etc. in other European languages (1). ...This is linguistically correct, but since the word means today something else than in Roman times, the whole passages of Vitruvius are obscured. The vitruvian symmetria means "modular sizes" or “standard measures" (2). Today, the word means the composition of an image with its mirror reflection or, according to Webster, the correspondence in size, shape and relative position of parts on opposite sides of a dividing line or median line (3).
