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
Published in Augsburg in 1793 by Georg Christoph Kilian, this German-language volume reproduces paintings and antiquities unearthed at Herculaneum and nearby sites since 1738, for scholars and collectors of classical art. The four pictures show faint engraved and pencil-outlined plates: a landscape with a coastline, a standing draped figure, a frieze of small framed scenes, and a bordered panel with two seated or kneeling figures, offering designers examples of classical drapery, narrative frieze layout and antique ornamental framing.
