The Townley Gallery

British Museum, Townley, Charles, 1737-1805 · 1836 · London : C. Knight · 19 pictures

The Townley Gallery is a 1836 London catalogue of classical sculpture from Charles Townley's collection, published by C. Knight and tied to the British Museum for a general and antiquarian readership. Its pictures are plain black-and-white engravings of statues and reliefs, with clean outlines and drapery folds that show how Greek and Roman carving was rendered in line.
