The Academic Royals d'Architecture discussed especially two aspects of the Tuscan capital, that is, the vertical proportion of three parts (abacus, echinus, and necking), and the mouldings in the abacus and under the echinus. First, the Academy approved Vitruvius' system interpreted by S. Serlio, then that interpreted by Cl. Perrault for a short period, and finally, as early as the beginning of the 18th century, the proportion and the moulding of the Tuscan capital of the orangerie in the Versailles Palace, designed by Fra^ois Mansart. The Academic admitted also Vignola's Tuscan capital that presents similarity to Mansart's one. This paradigme sift from the antique architecture to the French classical architecture preceded that of the general proportion system of the five ordres.
