De ectypis quibusdam æneis quæ falso vocantur "Argivo-Corinthiaca"

Ridder, André de, 1868-1921 · 1896 · Lutetiæ Parisiorum : A. Fontemoing · 14 pictures

A scholarly monograph by André de Ridder, published in Paris in 1896 by A. Fontemoing, on bronze reliefs of Greek origin then called Argivo-Corinthian. The plates are line engravings of fragmentary embossed bronze panels, showing carved figures, animals and key-pattern borders. A designer could take from them the compact, low-relief grammar of early Greek metalwork, with its stacked registers, egg-and-dart and meander bands, and framed animal scenes.
