Barré, Louis, 1799-1857, Roux, H. (Henri) · 1861 · Paris : Firmin Didot frères et cie · 25 pictures

A mid-nineteenth-century Paris compendium by Louis Barré and H. Roux, published by Firmin Didot in 1861, gathering line-engraved reproductions of Roman and Greek paintings, bronzes and mosaics from Herculaneum and Pompeii for artists and students of antiquity. The pictures are fine copper-plate outline drawings with no shading, showing figures in draped classical poses, seated women, a bearded seated man with attendants and a dog, and a youth with a staff beside an older bearded man among rocks and trees, a clean reference for pose and drapery.

Art, Greco-Roman
