Storia della scultura dal suo risorgimento in Italia sino al secolo di Napoleone : per sevire di continuazione alle opere di Winckelmann e di d'Agincourt
A history of Italian sculpture from its revival to the age of Napoleon, written by Count Leopoldo Cicognara and printed in Venice in 1813 as a sequel to Winckelmann and d'Agincourt. The plates are engraved line drawings of classical and Renaissance statues shown singly and in groups, many with their plinths and names captioned beneath. A designer could take from them the clean contour linework, the drapery folds rendered by hatching, and the poses of antique figures for figure studies.
