An 1816 London publication printed by J. Moyes for J. Taylor, reproducing sixty-one plates of sculptures from the Parthenon in Athens, drawn from Stuart and Revett's Antiquities of Athens and framed for architects, sculptors and antiquarians. The pictures are plain engraved and pencil plates on cream paper showing horses and riders in friezes, with restrained tonal shading and empty margins that a designer could use as a reference for classical relief composition and procession rhythm.
