Couches and beds of the Greeks, Etruscans and Romans
Couches and Beds of the Greeks, Etruscans and Romans is a 1905 scholarly study by Caroline Ransom Williams, published in Chicago by the University of Chicago Press, aimed at students of classical antiquity and ancient furniture. The pictures are mostly photographs and line drawings of ancient couch and bed fragments, carved reliefs, and bronze or ivory couch fittings, with a clear view of joinery and ornament a designer could borrow for classical or Mediterranean motifs.
