Opere di scultura e di plastica di Antonio Canova

Teotochi Albrizzi, Isabella, 1760-1836, Cicognara, Leopoldo, conte, 1767-1834 · 1821 · Pisa : Niccolò Capurro · 34 pictures

An 1821 Pisa publication by Isabella Teotochi Albrizzi and Leopoldo Cicognara, collecting engraved plates of Antonio Canova's sculptures for connoisseurs and collectors of Italian Neoclassicism. The pictures are plain outline engravings of standing marble figures on plinths, drawn with fine, even hatching and no shading or backgrounds, so a designer could take a clean, schematic approach to classical drapery and the idealised body.
