Voyages d'Antenor en Grèce et en Asie, aves des notions sur l'Égypte: manuscrit grec trouvé a Herculanum

Lantier, Étienne François de [Übers.] · 1797 · 1 picture

This 1797 French translation of a travel narrative, presented as a Greek manuscript found at Herculaneum, was rendered by Étienne François de Lantier and printed for readers interested in ancient Greece and Asia. The single engraving shows a kneeling figure with a lyre before a standing robed man in a columned hall, with onlookers at left; a designer could draw on its austere neoclassical staging, drapery folds, and tight architectural framing for historical scenes.
