Der kleine Byzantiner : Taschenbuch des byzantinischen Baustyles : zum Handgebrauch für Architekten und technische Lehranstalten
Der kleine Byzantiner is a German pocket handbook of Byzantine architectural ornament by Carl Alexander von Heideloff, published in Nuremberg in 1841 for architects and technical schools. Its plates show carved capitals, foliate friezes and interlace panels drawn in plain outline, with lettered details labelled a, b, c. A designer could take from them a catalogue of stylised acanthus scrolls, palmette borders and knotwork to adapt for decorative bands and panels.
