Il Museo capitolino is an 1819 Milan edition of a catalogue of antique sculpture in the Capitoline Museums in Rome, compiled from work by Bottari, Foggini, Winckelmann and Visconti. Its plates show Roman portrait busts of emperors and figures, drawn in fine outline with shaded hair, drapery and bases, a clear reference for designers studying classical portraiture and sculptural drapery.
