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 · 2 pictures

A 1797 French translation by Étienne François de Lantier of a travel narrative attributed to Antenor, a Greek manuscript said to have been found at Herculaneum, presenting classical Greece and Asia with notes on Egypt for readers interested in archaeology and topography. The engraved plate shows two draped figures in a garden setting beside a classical statue on a pedestal and a dog, drawn in fine line with dense foliage, and a designer might take its neoclassical costume, landscape framing and pared-back linework as reference.
