Le pitture antiche d'Ercolano e contorni
Le pitture antiche d'Ercolano e contorni is a 1765 Italian catalogue of ancient wall paintings from Herculaneum and its surroundings, issued in Naples for scholars and collectors of antiquities. Its plates are engraved reproductions of frescoes, showing mythological figures, altars, and decorative panels with winged figures, masks, and framed ornament that designers can borrow for classical motifs and symmetrical border layouts.
