Drawings faithfully copied from nature at Naples and with permission dedicated to the Right Honourable Sir William Hamilton ...

Rehberg, Friedrich, 1758-1835 · 1794 · [London? : s.n.] · 15 pictures

A set of pencil drawings by Friedrich Rehberg, published in 1794, probably in London, and dedicated to Sir William Hamilton, with its subjects drawn from Lady Hamilton's poses. Each plate shows a single draped female figure in a thin-lined ruled frame on a cream page. Designers can take the controlled contour line, loose drapery folds, and classical staged poses as a reference for figure drawing or restrained neoclassical illustration.
