A 1755 Venetian mythological dictionary by André de Claustre, printed by Domenico Ferrarin, aimed at readers wanting the origins of gods, demigods and heroes of pagan antiquity. Its pictures are engraved plates of single standing goddesses on plain grounds, labelled with names such as Ecate and Cerere, showing attributes like torches, serpents and wreaths that a designer could borrow for classical figure studies.
