Collezione de' migliori ornamenti antichi sparsi nella città di Venezia : coll' aggiunta di alcuni frammenti di gotica architetturae di varie invenzioni di un giovane alunno di questa I.R. Accademia
An 1831 Venetian publication from the Giuseppe Antonelli press, issued in Venice for students and designers of the Imperial Royal Academy, collecting the best antique ornaments found across the city. Its plates are fine line engravings of architectural decoration: frieze bands of acanthus scrolls, rectangular panels of interlaced foliage, a carved console bracket, and a relief of a bird of prey. A designer might borrow the scroll rhythm, the symmetrical acanthus layouts and the carved relief detailing for border, panel or bracket designs.
