(Band 2)
Johann Joachim Winckelmann's 1767 volume, the second in his series on ancient art, is an engraved plate book from the Heidelberg University Library, aimed at scholars and collectors of antiquities. Its pictures are fine-line engravings of classical sculpture, vessels, ornament and figures, with clean outlines and hatched shading that a designer could draw on for neoclassical motifs, classical ornament panels and figure poses.
