Antiquités de la France is an 1778 Paris architectural folio by Charles-Louis Clérisseau and Claude René Gabriel Poulleau, printed by Philippe-Denys Pierres, of Roman architecture for an audience of architects and antiquarians. The plates are precise engraved elevations, sections and column details in grey wash, with entablature profiles, arcaded façades and colonnades that suggest classical proportion and layered shading for designers studying ornament and structure.
