Historia Augusta Imperatorum Romanorum A C. Julio Caesare usque ad Josephum Imperatorem Augustissimum
A 1710 Latin imperial history of Rome from Julius Caesar onward, edited by Hennin, Lotichius and Hofmann, with engraved portrait medallions of individual emperors. Each plate shows a laureate or crowned male bust in profile inside a beaded circular frame, with a Latin caption on a scrolled cartouche below, so a designer could borrow the medallion-and-cartouche layout for period portraiture or classical heritage styling.
