Marmora Oxoniensia is an 1763 Oxford catalogue of classical marble sculptures and inscriptions held at the Ashmolean Museum, produced by the University of Oxford with Richard Chandler and John Miller for scholars and collectors. Its engravings reproduce reliefs, funerary stelae and standing statues as crisp, evenly hatched line drawings on plain paper, a clear model for antique relief compositions, draped figure studies and inscribed tablet layouts.
