Sculture e pitture sagre is a 1737 Roman folio of Christian sculptures and paintings taken from the catacombs, edited by Giovanni Gaetano Bottari and printed at the Vatican press under Pope Clement XII. The plates are rotated engravings of ceiling vaults, arched wall decorations and tomb chambers, with classical figures, winged putti and ornamental scrollwork, useful to a designer studying early Christian ornament and layered arch-and-medallion compositions.
