C.A. Böttiger's Kleine Schriften archäologischen und antiquarischen Inhalts
Karl August Böttiger's collected shorter writings on classical archaeology and antiquities, published in Dresden and Leipzig by the Arnoldische Buchhandlung in 1837 for scholars of antiquity. Its plates are fine pen-and-ink line drawings of classical figures: a winged woman standing on a sphere, a draped woman riding a fish-like sea creature, and a seated woman on an ornate throne. Designers can borrow their crisp contour line, stylised decorative borders and flat, scholarly neoclassical figure poses.
