Roma sotterranea : die römischen Katakomben. Eine Darstellung der neuesten Forschungen mit Zugrundelegung des Werkes
A German-language 1873 study of the Roman catacombs, issued by Herder in Freiburg im Breisgau and drawing on the researches of de Rossi, Northcote, Brownlow and Kraus, aimed at scholars and general readers of Christian antiquities. Its engravings show catacomb tomb architecture, a sarcophagus carved with a sea scene, and a figure with jars and a bird, which a designer might draw on for early Christian relief compositions, ornamental borders and antique line-engraving texture.
