Recueil D'Antiquités, Egyptiennes, Etrusques, Grecques Et Romaines
Recueil d'Antiquités is a 1762 antiquarian catalogue compiled by Anne Claude Philippe de Caylus, documenting Egyptian, Etruscan, Greek and Roman artefacts for scholars and collectors. The plates are engraved line drawings of statuettes, reliefs, gems, busts and vessels, set in numbered compositions with a clean, orderly layout a designer could use for classical motif study and historical ornament.
