Das Kriegswesen der Römer in treuen Abbildungen
A set of 1824 plates titled Das Kriegswesen der Römer in treuen Abbildungen, published by P. Bohmanns Erben and produced by August Josef Mitterbacher and Joseph Ottenberger, showing Roman military life through engraved scenes. The engravings are line-based and sepia-toned, with Latin captions beneath each plate, and show horse-drawn wagons, mounted warriors and infantry massed with shields and spears, offering designers period armour, chariot and battle-scene compositions drawn from a classical historical source.
