Il Museo capitolino
Il Museo capitolino is an 1819 Milan printing, edited from earlier work by Bottari, Winckelmann and Visconti, that catalogues the Capitoline Museum's Greco-Roman sculpture for scholars and collectors. Its pictures are plain outline engravings of marble busts shown in three-quarter view on square plinths, with hatching only along the cut edges, so a designer can borrow the clean contour style and classical portrait poses.
