Le imagini de i dei de gli antichi is a 1581 Italian mythography printed in Lyon by Bartolomeo Honorati, written by Vincenzo Cartari and illustrated by Bolognino Zaltieri, aimed at scholars and artists interested in classical gods and rites. Its woodcut plates show figures in classical dress with attributes such as spears, wings, animals, and altars set against simple landscapes, giving a designer a catalogue of ancient iconography and costume.
