Bernard de Montfaucon's 1719 Paris archaeology compendium L'antiquité expliquée presents classical antiquities for scholars and collectors of ancient art. Its engraved plates show Roman costume and statuary in ruled frames, with figures standing in plain outline and few shaded areas, useful to a designer studying classical dress, poses and drapery.
