Musee Pie-Clementin
Musée Pie-Clementin is a plate-illustrated museum catalogue of classical sculpture from the Vatican's Museo Pio-Clementino, compiled by the scholar Ennio Quirino Visconti and published in Milan in 1818 for scholars and collectors. Its pictures are plain line engravings of standing marble statues on plinths, shown full length against blank paper with the figure's name printed below, offering a designer clean, legible references for classical drapery, poses and proportion.
