A 1688 Roman antiquarian study by Claude-François Menestrier, Lucas Holstenius and Giovanni Pietro Bellori, published in Rome for scholars and collectors of classical antiquity. Its engravings show the many-breasted cult statue of Artemis of Ephesus from several angles, alongside coin plates with Greek lettering. Designers can draw on its ornate, densely tiered column forms, animal and rosette motifs, and crisp scholarly line engraving.
