Cenni archeologici su d'un simulacro romano rinvenuto nell' agro cremonese
An 1831 Milanese archaeological monograph, published by Giuseppe Crespi, describing a Roman statue of Venus found in the Cremona countryside, illustrated for antiquarian readers and scholars. The plate shows the statue in front and back views with a small coin-like medallion between them, drawn in fine, even outline with soft drapery folds that a designer could borrow for classical figure studies.
