Griechische Kunstmythologie: besonderer Theil
Griechische Kunstmythologie is a scholarly German plate book on Greek art and its gods, written by Johannes Adolf Overbeck and published in Leipzig by W. Engelmann in 1871 for art historians and classical scholars. Its pictures are plain black-and-white line engravings of ancient coins, gems and cameos, drawn at a small scale with clear outlines, showing how mythological figures were rendered in Greek art and offering designers a catalogue of classical profiles, standing gods and laurel-framed heads.
