Collection J. Gréau : Catalogue des bronzes antiques et des objets d'art du moyen age et de la renaissance
A nineteenth-century Paris sale catalogue of antique bronzes and medieval and Renaissance objets d'art, compiled by collector Julien Gréau with commentary by Wilhelm Froehner in 1885. Its engravings show ancient bronze statuettes and heads rendered in fine cross-hatched line on cream paper, so a designer could take from them the dense shading of bronze surfaces and the stylised sculptural poses of classical figures.
