Le Bacchus de Troyes : extrait d'un mémoire de la Société académique de l'Aube de l'Institut des provinces de la Société impériale des antiquaires de France etc.
An 1866 excerpt from an antiquarian society memoir by Eugène Henri Le Brun-Dalbanne, printed by Dufour-Bouquot in Troyes, France, for scholars of classical antiquity and the provincial antiquarian societies of France. Its pictures are grey lithographic plates of a bearded marble head, likely of Bacchus, with curling hair and carved vine-like ornament, and a shallow relief of figures and foliage in a rounded frame, offering a designer soft tonal shading and classical carved-stone forms to borrow.
