Saggio di Robustiano Gironi intorno alla scultura dei Greci
An 1822 Milan study by Robustiano Gironi, published by the Ferrario press, on Greek sculpture, aimed at scholars and readers of classical art. Its plates are engraved reproductions of statues, reliefs, coins and fragments, drawn in fine grey line with soft shading on plain white paper. A designer could take the clean classical figure poses and the restrained tonal engraving style for historical or antique-themed work.
