Monumenti gabini della Villa Pinciana is an 1835 Milan publication by Ennio Quirino Visconti and Giovanni Labus, recording Roman sculpture from the Pincian Villa's Gabine collection for scholars and collectors of antiquities. Its plates are pencil-line engravings of statues and busts shown in plan-like arrangements, with inscriptions noted beside each figure. A designer might borrow the sparse hatching, draped classical garments, and the grid layout of paired figures on a pale ground.
