Abbildungen der Gemälde und Alterthümer : welche seit 1738, sowohl in der verschütteten Stadt Herkulanum, als auch in den umliegenden Gegenden an das Licht gebracht worden
An 1793 Augsburg publication by engraver Georg Christoph Kilian, issued by the Bürglen bookshop, that gathers plates of paintings and antiquities unearthed at Herculaneum and nearby sites since 1738. The pages are fine line engravings of ornamental medallions, candelabra and decorative fragments, with an outline style a designer could borrow for classical border, roundel and frieze motifs.
