La porte de Sainte-Sabine à Rome, étude archéologique
A late nineteenth-century archaeological study by Joachim Joseph Berthier, published in Fribourg, Switzerland in 1892 for scholars and students of early Christian art, on the carved wooden door of the Roman basilica of Santa Sabina. The pictures are photographic reproductions of its low-relief panels showing biblical scenes in robed figures set against plain architectural backgrounds, with a sparse, carved narrative style that a designer might use for early Christian motifs, relief compositions, or woodcarved panel layouts.
