Sulzer, Johann Georg, 1720-1779, Blankenburg, Christian Friedrich von, 1744-1796 · 1792 · Leipzig : In der Weidmannschen Buchhandlung · 7 pictures

Sulzer and Blankenburg's Allgemeine Theorie der schönen Künste is an 1792 German aesthetics reference work, published in Leipzig by Weidmannsche Buchhandlung, arranging art terms alphabetically for readers of fine arts. Its pictures are plain black-line diagrams: a geometric figure of intersecting lines and labelled points, a curved optical sketch beside a rectangle marked B, a bank of vertical ruled lines with a circular arc, and a short musical staff with syllables under the notes, useful to a designer for schematic line diagrams and labelled figure layouts.
