Monuments antiques à Orange : Arc de Triomphe et Théatre
A survey volume of Roman monuments at Orange in southern France, published in Paris in 1856 by Typographie de Firmin Didot Frères for architects and students of antiquity, with plates credited to Augustin-Nicolas Caristie. The engraved plates give measured elevations of the triumphal arch with its three arches, pediment and relief panels, plus a detail of a column-framed doorway and a view of the theatre's sculpted niche with a seated statue. A designer might take from them the strict rhythm of columns, arches and entablatures and the fine line-hatching used to render carved stone.
