Kilian, Georg Christoph, 1709-1781 · 1793 · Augsburg : Im Verlag bei Christoph Friedrich Bürglens Buch- und Kunsthandlung · 17 pictures

A 1793 Augsburg publication by Georg Christoph Kilian, printed by Christoph Friedrich Bürglen, reproducing paintings and antiquities unearthed at Herculaneum and nearby sites since 1738. The pictures are pencil-like engraved copies of ancient wall decorations: framed panels with figures, winged cupids, and ornamental friezes of scrolls and foliage, which a designer could take as models for classical panel layouts and border ornament.
