Le pitture antiche d'Ercolano e contorni: Le lucerne ed i candelabri d'Ercolano e contorni: incise con qualche spiegazione ; tomo unico
An 1792 Italian catalogue of oil lamps and candelabra from Herculaneum and its surroundings, issued as a single volume in the Pitture antiche d'Ercolano series for antiquarians and collectors of classical antiquities. The engraved plates show lamps seen from above and in profile, with relief scenes of figures and heads on their discs, arranged in neat groups on each page. A designer could take their clean outline drawing, the repeated circular medallion compositions, and the classical figure motifs for ornament, borders, or vintage print layouts.
