Recueil D'Antiquités, Egyptiennes, Etrusques, Grecques Et Romaines
Recueil d'Antiquités is an 1764 engraved plate collection of Egyptian, Etruscan, Greek and Roman antiquities, assembled by Anne Claude Philippe de Caylus and held by Heidelberg University Library. The plates are numbered engravings of statues, figurines, a cameo-style oval head and a relief, drawn in fine line with plain shading. A designer might take their clean outline drawing, classical drapery folds and tidy plate-numbering layout as a model for an antiquarian catalogue page.
