Historical remarks on statuary and sculpture is a 1812 London treatise by James Dallaway, Harriet Dallaway and J. Berryman, written for readers of antique sculpture preserved in England. Its engraved plates show classical statues and figure groups in outline, drawn with plain hatching rather than shaded tone. A designer might take from them the draped Greek garment folds, the stance of standing figures, and the simple line-hatching used to describe marble.
