Répertoire de la statuaire grecque et romaine
A Paris reference catalogue of Greek and Roman statuary compiled by Salomon Reinach and published by E. Leroux in 1897, meant for scholars and art students. Its numbered line drawings show single figures and fragments in outline: a standing youth, a torso seen from the back, a winged figure, and a draped female statue with a child beside her. Designers can draw on the clean contour line and the plain, even paper tone of these classical studies.
