Le dessin des animaux en Grèce d'après les vases peints, essai sur les procédés des dessinateurs industriels dans l'antiquité;
A 1911 Paris study by Morin-Jean, published by H. Laurens, on how Greek vase painters drew animals, with its plates reproducing black-figure silhouettes. The pictures show a winged sphinx-like creature, a boar, an antelope with a curved horn, and a ram in solid black with white incised lines, drawn on a plain ground with scale bars. A designer could take from them the economy of silhouette, where a few white incisions and a flat black mass suggest musculature, fur and horn.
