Raccolta d'antiche statue, busti, bassirilievi ed altre sculture : restaurate da Bartolomeo Cavaceppi, scultore romano

Cavaceppi, Bartolomeo, 1717-1799 · 1768 · In Roma : Nella stamperia di Generoso Salomoni · 32 pictures

A Roman book of 1768 by the sculptor Bartolomeo Cavaceppi, published in Rome by the Salomoni press, presenting restored antique statues, busts and reliefs for collectors and connoisseurs of classical art. The engravings show standing and seated figures and a bust on a decorated pedestal, rendered in fine hatched line with plain grey tones and little background, so a designer could draw on their clean outlines, drapery folds and classical poses.
